When flowers grow in snow on the ground and when it rains in the desert sun and when all of the lakes and seas have run dry in a future world to come .

When all the soil has been toiled and spoiled and a new kind of harvest has come you’ll find a sanctuary in the world when all of us can live as one .

Heaven can be so near, when the dark night is over and the sun will rise, and creatures shall not fear man and in this world man shall peaceful and wise .

Deep in this sanctuary we will build many things in a future yet to come , And the air will be fresh and the oceans clean and sparkling rivers will run .

There’s a new day waiting for us to make a new start when the day is done So until the new dawn comes let us be still in this world my gentle one .
