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 dispare if you must face them all alone 

A rose looks grey at midnight... 

(These things shall pass)
