Just a Little While
Jillian Edwards Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No suffering, crying, or tears
The old way of things will have passed on
And all will have changed
And your bright shining face
Will see the light of day
Once and for all
Oh, until then
I will hold your hand
So lay your head down beside me
Let me tell you how I love you so
And the privilege of walking this world with
You till eternity shows
His bright shining face
Just like the light of day
Once and for all
Darkness will die
Oh, until then
I will hold
Your hand holds me all through the night
I know we can't be separated by anything at all
In just a little while, he'll restore us
Every scar and wound finally healed
And like dust that covers and old frame
Swept away for a picture's reveal
In just a little while
Just a little while
Just a little while
Just a little while
