When Love Is Near

As I have come to you receive me and hear my song,
I'll sing of love to you,
Believe me for love is strong,
And love as it grows can fill the empty like forgiving eyes
Let our voices rise together, together

Sing out ye gentle people,
Sing till the sunshine comes to light the midnight air
Sing out ye gentle people,
Gather your voices till our song becomes a prayer

When love has come to you in darkness the way is clear,
To find a path for you,
My darling when love is near
And love as it grows can fill the empty like forgiving eyes
Let our voices rise together, together

Sing out ye gentle people,
Sing till the sunshine comes to light the midnight air
Sing out ye gentle people,
Gather your voices till our song becomes a prayer

Sing out ye gentle people,
Sing till the sunshine comes to light the midnight air
