words by Victor Herbert and Rida Johnson - adapted by Norman Brule

Ah sweet mystery of life, at last I found you.
I found the reason for it all, it's love and love alone the world looks for

All the clamour and strife, the longing and pain, the burning hopes and joy and
tears that fall, it is love and love alone the world needs now.
It's love and love alone that can satisfy, love is the answer to everything, for
it is love and love alone that men need.
For it is love and love alone the world is seeking.
For it is love and love alone that satisfies.
Yes, it was love Jesus died for and it was love for which he came and will come
again

Ah sweet mystery of life, at last I found you.
I found the reason for it all, it's love and love alone the world looks for.
Yes, it was love Jesus died for and it was love for which he came and will come
again.
