Johnny Cash - These Things Shall Pass lyrics

These things shall pass and some great morning

We'll look back and smile at heartaches we have known

So don't forget when shadows gather

The Lord our God is still the King upon his throne

A rose looks grey at midnight but the flame is just asleep

And steel is strong because it knew the hammer and white heat

These things shall pass and life be sweeter

When love and faith are strong they cannot long endure

These things shall pass so don't you worry

The darkest time is just one hour before dawn

So hold up high and face your troubles

And don't dispare if you must face them all alone

A rose looks grey at midnight...

(These things shall pass)
