Beams of Heaven (Some Day) Songtext

von Aretha Franklin

Verso 1
Beams of heaven as I go,
Through this wilderness below.
Guide my feet in peaceful way,
Turn my midnights into days.

When in darkness, I would grope,
Faith always sees a star of hope.
And soon from all life's grief and danger,
I shall be free some day.

Refrão
I do not know how long 'twill be,
Nor what the future holds for me;
But this I know, if Jesus leads,
I shall get home some day.

Verso 2
Often times my sky is clear,
Joy abounds without a tear.
Though a day so bright begun,
Clouds may hide tomorrow's sun.

There'll be a day that's always bright,
A day that never yields to night;
And in its light the streets of glory,
I shall behold some day.

Refrão

Verso 3
Harder yet may be the fight,
Right may often yield to might.
Wickedness awhile may reign,
Satan's cause may seem to gain.

There is a God that rules above,
Sith hand of power and heart of love.
If I am right, He'll fight my battle,
I shall have peace some day.

Refrão

Verso 4
Burdens now may crush me down,
Disappointments all around.
Troubles speak in mournful sigh,
Sorrow through a tear stained eye.

There is a world where pleasure reigns,
No mourning soul shall roam its plains,
And to that land of peace and glory,
I want to go some day.

Refrão
