Better than grandeur,
better than gold is the shrine of love,
the haven of life is a heart
that can feel a woe in affliction’s hour,
better than pride and vanities is the balm
of a tender hug with its soothing power,
when all decay and fade away trust the blessings of heaven.

Better than grandeur,
better than gold is the shrine of love,
the haven of life is a heart
that can feel a woe in affliction’s hour,
better than pride and vanities is the balm
of a tender hug with its soothing power,
when all decay and fade away trust the blessings of heaven.
