Amor Vincit Omnia
“Love conquers everything”

When a friend seems far away
And you’re not sure what to say,
Live God’s eternal idea:
Amor vincit omnia

When your wife has grown distant
And you’re not sure where she went,
And for her you are longing:
Love conquers everything!

When the world seems a dark place,
And it seems there’s no more grace;
Live a selfless life; be a
Soul striving to change the world,
Your dreams will become unfurled;
Amor vincit omnia

"Amor vincit omnia" may be god's idea, but it was a man who coined "neca eos omnes, deus suos agnoscet."
