Jan Howard Lyrics
"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.

--- Instrumental ---

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...
