¶Lyrics / Text

'Tis twilight's holy hour! The sun is sinking to a sweet repose; In beauty each fair flower, Its petals softly, sweetly doth close. DIm shadows slowly creep O'er hill and dale, and ancient mountain wood; down many a sloping steep, Where moss-grown nooks for centuries have stood. '' 'Tis twilight's holy hour! ''The sun is sinking to a sweet repose. The stream whose crystal breast In noon-day sun with crimson blushes burned Now peacefully doth rest, Soft shadows veiling its fair face upturned. Sweet harmony doth reign; While softly, richly mellow fades the light, The day-beam's sweet refrain, This silent hour which heralds in the night. '' 'Tis twilight's holy hour! ''The sun is sinking to a sweet repose.
