A Time Will Come For Singing

A time will come for singing

When all your tears are shed

When sorrows chains are broken

And broken hearts will mend

The deaf will hear your singing

When silent tongues are freed

The lame will join your dancing

When blind eyes learn to see

A time will come for singing

When trees will raise their boughs

When men lay down their armor

And hammer their swords into plows

When beggars live as princes

And orphans find their homes

When prison cells are emptied

And hatred has grown old

A time will come for singing

A hymn by hearts foretold

That kings have sought for ages

And treasured more than gold

Its lyrics turn to silver

When sung in harmony

The Lord of Love

Will teach us to sing its melody
