GAll the armies of the Cworld will someday Ggather
And they'll pass before that great reviewing D7stand
And they'll Gbeat their swords and Cweapons into Gplowshares
And the Prince of Peace shall D7give the last Gcommand
CWhen King GJesus comes to Clive with us Gagain
He will show His righteous love to every D7man
GWars and strife will all be past
There'll be B7peace on Earth at Emlast
CWhen King GJesus comes to D7live with us Gagain
Un-obscured the sun will Cdrive away the Gshadows
At the dawning of that great eternal D7day
And there'll Gbe no sounds of Ccrying in the Gghetto
For all grief and pain and D7death shall pass Gaway
