Hymn To The Night Lyrics - Singles - Without Face

I herd the trailing garments of the night 

sweep through her marble halls; 

I saw her sable skirts all fringed with light 

from the celestial walls 

I felt her presence by its spell of might, 

stopp o'er me from above, from above 

the calm the majestic presence of the night 

as of the one I love 

I heard the sounds of sorrow and delight, 

the manifold soft chimes 

that fill the haunted chambers of the night 

like some old poet's rhymes 

I felt her presence by its spell of might 

stoop o'er me from above 

tha calm, the majestic presence of the night 

as of the one I love 

I felt her presence by its spell of might 

I heard the sounds of sorrow and delight 

The welcome the thrice prayer for the most fair 

the best beloved night 

peace, Orestes like I breathe this prayer 

descend with broad-winged flight 

I felt her presence by its spell of night 

I heard the sounds of sorrow and delight
