WHERE THERE IS LOVE

     WHERE THERE IS LOVE THE HEART IS LIGHT,
     WHERE THERE IS LOVE THE DAY IS BRIGHT
     WHERE THERE IS LOVE THERE IS A SONG
     TO HELP WHEN THINGS ARE GOING WRONG,
     WHERE THERE IS LOVE THERE IS A SMILE
     TO MAKE ALL THINGS SEEM MORE WORTHWHILE,
     WHERE THERE IS LOVE THERE'S QUIET PEACE
     A TRANQUIL PLACE WHERE TURMOILS CEASE...
     LOVE CHANGES DARKNESS INTO LIGHT
     AND MAKES THE HEART TAKE "WINGLESS FLIGHT"
     OH, BLEST ARE THEY WHO WALK IN LOVE
     THEY ALSO WALK WITH GOD ABOVE,
     AND WHEN MAN WALKS WITH GOD AGAIN
     THERE SHALL BE PEACE ON EARTH FOR MEN.
