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 the 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
A rose looks grey...
