Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Well, I'm tired and so weary, but I must travel on
'Til the Lord comes and calls me away
Where the morning's so bright and the Lamb is the light
And the night is as clear as the day; oh yes
(CHORUS)
There will be peace in the valley for me, oh Lord, I pray
There'll be no sadness, no sorrow, no trouble I see
Only peace in the valley for me
There my sins are all forgiven and fear will disappear
'Cause I believe Jesus died to set me free
Where the sun ever shines, sending one endless beam
And no storm clouds will ever be seen; oh yes
(CHORUS)
There will be peace in the valley for me some day
There will be peace in the valley for me, oh Lord, I pray
And there'll be no sadness, no sorrow, no trouble I see
There will be peace in the valley for me
Only peace in the valley for me; oh yes
