Lyrics:
A vast cloud of love enveloped the sky,
From the millions of souls that had passed on high,
And we mortals sang our song of praise,
From hearts that were full, so did we raise,
Thoughts of our loved ones, and of past days,
Sadness, and gladness, mingled with love,
Everlasting love.
Everlasting love, without which there is no life.
So we lift our eyes to banish all strife,
Togetherness one day, one blessed day.
