My Shining Hour

My Shining Hour

music by Harold Arlen (left)

lyric by Johnny Mercer (right)

This moment, this minute and each second in it,

Will leave a glow upon the sky, and as time goes by, it will never die.

This will be my shining hour, calm and happy and bright,

In my dreams, your face will flower, through the darkness of the night.

Like the lights of home before me, or an angel watching o'er me,

This will be my shining hour, till I'm with you again.
