Peace in the Valley

(Thomas A. Dorsey)



(Bill)

Well, I'm tired and so weary

But I must go along

Till the Lord comes and calls me

Calls me away, oh yes

Where the morning's so bright

And the lamb is the light

And the night night is as black

As the sea, oh yes.



There will be peace in the valley for me some day

There will be peace in the valley for me oh Lord I pray

There'll be no sadness no sorrow no trouble I see

There will be peace in the valley for me, oh yes.

Oh, the bear will be gentle

And the wolf will be tame

And the lion shall lay down by lamb, oh yes

And the beast from the wild

Will be lead by a child

And I'll be changed

Changed from this creature that I am someday.



There will be peace in the valley for me some day

There will be peace in the valley for me oh Lord I pray

There'll be no sadness no sorrow no trouble I see

There will be peace in the valley for me, oh yes...
