These Things Shall Pass

These things shall pass and some great morning We'll look back and smile at heartaches we have known So don't forget when shadows gather The lord our God is still The King upon His throne A rose looks grey at midnight but the flame is just asleep And steel is strong because it knew the hammer and white heat These things shall pass and life be sweeter When love and faith are strong they cannot long endure These things shall pass so don't you worry The darkest time is just one hour before dawn So hold up high and face your troubles And don't despair if you must face them all alone A rose looks grey at midnight (THESE THINGS SHALL PASS) These things shall pass and life be sweeter When love and faith are strong they cannot long endure
