Dolly Parton - Raven Dove Lyrics
(Dolly Parton) There will come a day when sorrow fades away, And anguish and heartache shall ease, No mothers cryin', no soldiers dyin', And turmoil and misery shall cease. The hungry shall be fed, the aimless shall be led And sad eyes will no longer weep, The last shall be first, through heaven he'll burst With his heavenly host from the East Weapons to plowshares, hate turns to love, Descending from heaven he'll sweep down to us In radiant splendor; oh, won't it be sweet When the raven of darkness turns into a white dove of peace (Raven dove) Oh, there will come a day when I'll fly away Forever to be in his keep Eternal life in the sweet by and by When raven dove, raven dove speaks When lambs walk with lions, a child tames the beast Nations shall gather and bow at his feet And loved ones shall rise up from their earthly sleep And he'll separate all the chaff from the wheat. Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, how sweet When the raven of darkness turns into a white dove of peace Raven dove, behold he cometh in the clouds And every eye shall see him Sweet bird, sweet bird of peace Raven Dove
