Soon and forever, the breaking of day Shall drive all the night-clouds of sorrow away; Soon and forever we’ll see as we’re seen, And learn the deep meaning of things that have been.
Verse 2
Soon and forever, the soldier lays down His sword for a harp, and his cross for a crown; Droop not in sorrow, despond not in fear, A glorious tomorrow is bright’ning and clear.
