Where There Is Love

WHERE THERE IS LOVE

by HELEN STEINER RICE



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.









OUR SOUL WAITS FOR THE LORD;
HE IS OUR HELP AND OUR SHIELD.
