Eternal colors - Virgin of Paris br br br [Verse 1] br In silent halls of vaulted grace, br The statues shine with painted face, br A cloak of blue, a robe of flame, br In gold and light, they speak His name. br [Chorus] br O radiant hues from Heaven’s dome, br Bright lapis skies and crimson tones, br The sacred stone now breathes and glows, br With colors time no longer knows. br [Verse 2] br Upon her brow, the gilded crown, br A lily burns, the stars look down, br The child she holds, so calm, divine, br In ochre robes the saints design. br [Final Refrain - choir style] br Shine on, O light of painted grace, br In every fold, the holy face, br The sacred form, the artist’s flame, br Eternal colors, still proclaim.
