When Daylight Breaks
When daylight breaks
Across the sky
And streaks of gold
The day unfold,
When darkness fades in mellow light
And day-time angels chase the night,
Then all my peaceful dreaming wakes
To love thee more when daylight breaks.
When daylight breaks
In dusky hue
To kindle diamonds
In the dew,
And shadows in the valley deep
Play hide and seek, and star beams peep
With radiance waned, an offering wakes
To thee, my love, when daylight breaks.
When daylight wakes
Across the sky,
When starlight fades
And moonbeams die,
When dusky lashes catch the light
From hovering dreams, and all the night
Has fled, I wake to bless the fates
For thy sweet love when daylight breaks.
