Rolling On
Radiance, directed by Markdavin Obenza

  • I hear the gladsome song of love,
    of peace divine, of heav’nly mirth,
    Like waves of music from the spheres above,
    rolling on o’er the plains of earth.

    Rolling on, rolling on; no pow’r
    the fullness of its might can stay,
    The light of heaven breaking forth
    shall sweep the mists of doubt away.
