G                     C                  G 
All the armies of the world will someday gather 

                                             D7 
And they'll pass before that great reviewing stand 

            G                     C            G 
And they'll beat their swords and weapons into plowshares 

                              D7            G 
And the Prince of Peace shall give the last command 


C         G              C            G 
When King Jesus comes to live with us again 

                                         D7 
He will show His righteous love to every man 

G 
Wars and strife will all be past 

            B7                Em 
There'll be peace on Earth at last 

C         G              D7           G 
When King Jesus comes to live with us again 
          

                         C              G 
Un-obscured the sun will drive away the shadows 

                                     D7 
At the dawning of that great eternal day 

             G               C             G 
And there'll be no sounds of crying in the ghetto 

                           D7               G 
For all grief and pain and death shall pass away
