Star of the Evening by James M. Sayles Lyrics
Star of the evening in heav'n so bright ,
Softly falls thy silv'ry light,
As thou movest from earth afar,
Star of the evening, beautiful star,
Star of the evening, beautiful star.
(Chorus)
Beautiful star,—
Beautiful star,—
Star of the evening,
Beautiful, beautiful star. . . .
Shine on, oh star of love divine,
And may our soul's affections twine
Around thee as thou movest afar,
Star of the twilight, beautiful star.
Softly falls thy silv'ry light,
As thou movest from earth afar,
Star of the evening, beautiful star,
Star of the evening, beautiful star.
(Chorus)
Beautiful star,—
Beautiful star,—
Star of the evening,
Beautiful, beautiful star. . . .
Shine on, oh star of love divine,
And may our soul's affections twine
Around thee as thou movest afar,
Star of the twilight, beautiful star.
