Peace in the Valley
Finding Serenity: A Journey to Peace in the Valley
Lyrics
Oh well, I'm tired and so weary
Expressing fatigue and weariness
But I must go alone
Accepting the journey alone
Till the Lord comes and calls
Awaiting the call from the Lord
Calls me away, oh yes
Acknowledging the divine summons
Well the morning's so bright
Describing a bright morning
And the lamp is alight
Symbolizing enlightenment with a lit lamp
And the night, night is as black
Emphasizing the darkness of the night
As the sea, oh yes
Comparing the night to the dark sea
There will be peace in the valley for me, some day
Hopeful anticipation of peace in the future
There will be peace in the valley for me, oh Lord I pray
Praying for peace in the future
There'll be no sadness, no sorrow
Expecting an absence of sadness and sorrow
No trouble, trouble I see
Desiring a trouble-free existence
There will be peace in the valley for me, for me
Reiteration of longing for peace
Well the bear will be gentle
Imagining a gentle bear
And the wolves will be tame
Envisioning tame wolves
And the lion shall lay down by the lamb, oh yes
Describing harmony between the lion and lamb
And the beasts from the wild
Referring to peace among wild animals
Shall be lit by a child
Symbolizing enlightenment through a child
And I'll be changed
Anticipating personal transformation
Changed from this creature that I am, oh yes
Desiring a change from current existence
There will be peace in the valley for me, some day
Reiterating hope for future peace
There will be peace in the valley for me, oh Lord I pray
Continuing the prayer for peace
There'll be no sadness, no sorrow
Emphasizing the absence of sadness and sorrow
No trouble, trouble I see
Desiring a trouble-free future
There will be peace in the valley for me, for me
Reiteration of hope for personal peace
