Lyrics Barry McGuire

Barry McGuire

When The Mist Has Rolled Away

When the mist has rolled in splendor

From the beauty of the hills

And the sunlight falls in blackness

On the rivers and the rills

We recall our Father's promise

In the rainbow of the spray

We shall know each other better

When the mist has rolled away

We shall know as we are known

Oh, we're never more to walk alone

In the dawning of the morning

On that bright and happy day

We shall know each other better

When the mist has rolled away

Ooh-ooh-ooh...

Now we're free from all the sorrow

Of the sickly, saddened heart

And we'll forever be together

Even though we're far apart

And as shadows bind with the darkness

So the Son shall free the day

When the shadows have departed

And the mist has rolled away

We shall know as we are known

Oh, we're never more to walk alone

In the dawning of the morning

On that bright and happy day

We shall know each other better

When the mist has rolled away

Ooh-ooh-ooh...

Now we go with joy and gladness

As we gather around the throne

Face to face with those who love us

We shall know as we are known

And the song of our redemption

Shall resound through endless days

When the shadows have departed

And the mist has rolled away

We shall know as we are known

Oh, we're never more to walk alone

In the dawning of the morning

On that bright and happy day

We shall know each other better

When the mist has rolled away

Yes, we'll know each other better

When the mist has rolled away

Ooh-ooh-ooh...
