SONG LYRICS AND POETRY
"Trouble of the World"

Mahalia Jackson

Soon it will be dawn
Trouble of the world
Trouble of the world
Trouble of the world

Soon it will be dawn
Trouble of the world
Going home to hear you're gone
No more weeping on Whaley
No more weeping on Whaley
No more weeping on Whaley
Going home to live with my love

Soon it will be dawn
Trouble of the world
Trouble of the world
Trouble of the world

Soon we will be done, trouble of
Going home to live with my love
I want see my Ma
I want see my mother
My Ma to see my mother
Going home to live with God

Soon we will be done
Trouble of the world
Trouble of the world
Trouble of the world
How soon we will be done
With the trouble of the world
I am going home to live with God

The song, which is available on "The Best of Mahalia Jackson" CD, was submitted Greg Tutunjian, Brookline.
