There’ll be Peace in the Valley for Me

I am tired and weary but I must toil on

Till the Lord comes to call me away

Where the morning is bright and the Lamb is the light

And the night is as fair as the day

There the flowers will be blooming, the grass will be green

And the skies will be clear and serene,

The sun ever shines, giving one endless beam

And no clouds there will ever be seen

There the bear will be gentle; the wolf will be tame,

And the lion will lay down by the Lamb

The host from the wild will be led by a Child,

I’ll be changed from the creature I am.

No headaches or heartaches or misunderstands,

No confusion or trouble will be,

No frowns to defile just a big endless smile,

There’ll be peace and contentment for me.

There’ll be peace in the valley for me someday,

There’ll be peace in the valley for me.

I pray no more sorrow and sadness or trouble will be,

There’ll be peace in the valley for me.
