|
Along the valley, on the outskirts of town |
|
gathered in the orchard, holding tight to this parched ground |
|
We can stand together patient and strong |
|
Oh Lord, I know it won't be long |
|
You may be uprooted. You may be cast down |
|
You may move freely. You may be bound |
|
If we stand together patient and strong |
|
Oh lord, I know it won't be long |
|
(It won't be long) Rain will come |
|
(It won't be long)Sun will shine |
|
(It won't be long) Tears will fall, both yours and mine |
|
If we stand together and we sing this song |
|
Oh lord, It won't be long |
|
You may be twisted and bent with years |
|
You may be blistered, consumed, in fear |
|
If we stand together patient and strong |
|
Oh lord, I know it won't be long |
|
If it isn't sharpened, an axe will rust |
|
A hear is hardened if it knows no trust |
|
If we stand together and we sing this song |
|
Oh lord, I know it won't be long |
