Woke up this morning with the years I've spent
Hanging heavy on my mind
At times I see
So much in me
I wish I'd left behind
But the one thing I've learned
As the years have turned
And they sure have traveled fast
I don't have to stay where I am today because
This too shall pass
(Chorus:)
This too shall pass
This too shall pass
And the tears that fall like raindrops now
Will finally dry at last
This too shall pass
Sometimes I'm laughing with a crowd of friends
And still I feel alone
There's a place inside
Full of tears I hide
That I've only cried alone
But I know that He's near
And I know He hears
And I know these tears won't last
This pain today
Will be swept away because
This too shall pass
