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
