All Joy Be Thine - 1914

James Pitt-Payne, London and Ian Cousins, Opera Australia - 05 Feb 2002

All joy be thine this day of heart's delight,
The darken'd hours are past,
now breaks the light;
May fairest flow'rs around you be unfurl'd,
O love, O best beloved in the world!
All hope be thine this golden wondrous day,
And may no shade of grief
fall round your way;
But may you bravely face the journey long
Without a sigh, upon your lips a song!
All joy be thine this day of heart's delight,
And may God
guide your wand'ring steps aright,
And keep you safe, your holy guardian be,
And bring you back at eventide to me,
And bring you back at eventide to me.
