Raven Dove

[Verse 1]
There will come a day when sorrow fades away
And anguish and heartache shall ease
No mothers crying, no soldiers dying
And turmoil and misery shall cease

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus 1]
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

[Verse 3]
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

[Chorus 2]
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

[Outro]
Raven dove, behold he comes in the clouds
And every eye shall see him
Sweet bird, sweet bird of peace
Raven dove
