Then We Shall Understand Lyrics

Then We Shall Understand

Lost in the shadow of the Berlin wall

The skyline shifts as the night time falls

Darkness has come to claim the day

The Berlin wall had locked their hearts away

But there's a hope that burns a light

Through the darkness of the night

It's the light of God to every man

And when the Prince of Peace is come

Nothing will be left undone and then

Then we shall understand

In Washington they have a monument

That bears the names of all the lives that were spent

A testimony for a time of peace

A reference point for all humanity

But there's a hope that burns a light

Through the darkness of the night

It's the light of God to every man

And when the Prince of Peace is come

Nothing will be left undone and then

Then we shall understand

The trumpet sounds in Jericho

The walls come down and we are free

Where every man will hear that sound

And every eye will finally see

An old man journeys to a holy place

A troubled time shown on a troubled face

He kneels to pray against the Wailing Wall

He prays for peace, it is a desperate call

But there's a hope that burns a light

Through the darkness of the night

It's the light of God to every man

And when the Prince of Peace is come

Nothing will be left undone and then

Then we shall understand
