We are going to present a studio recording of Mario Lanza singing the same song, “Softly, As in a Morning Sunrise.”

As you listen a second time, think about the lyrics that compare love’s sweet promise with a sunrise and heaven and then shift to love’s great betrayal described as hell and the evening sunset.

I suspect that some personal feelings were involved in the drafting of these lyrics.
