Love Supreme Matches base text
Language: English
The night is far spent, the morning lights appear; In glorious splendor the radiance of day draws near. From dreams we wake to life; the light burns clear, Love lights the day - Love supreme. Majestic in flight the sun climbs heaven high, Dispelling the darkness that veil'd the sky. From fears we wake to light; new hope draws nigh; Love rules the world - Love supreme. With mighty wings outspread the eagle in his flight Is bearing onward the tidings of Freedom's light. Victorious hosts are rising, a cry rings thro' the night: Love conquers Death - Love supreme.
