LOVE IS A STAR by WILLIAM STANLEY BRAITHWAITE

First Line: THIS IS THE SONG I SING FOR YOU
Last Line: HERE IS REST FROM THE SEA AND HILL.
Subject(s): LOVE; STARS;

THIS is the song I sing for you,
Out of my heart the melodies rise --
Life is long for the brave and true,
Love is a star to your faithful eyes.
This is the dream your heart must hold:
One in the world is faithful still --
Here is warmth from the wind and cold,
Here is rest from the sea and hill.
