Will I ever see
will I ever see madness of the day alleviated
will I ever see no more sadness n self deception the path has now deviated
will I ever see to a new realm life elevated
will I ever see that there is no love in a town of whores
will I ever see there is no sweet wine when eating boars
will I ever see there is no ship to call home for my celestial shores
will I ever see greatness with ideas children born
will I ever see a transcendent tranquility that cannot be torn
will I ever see no more blind faith and sinful damnation ideas that go back n forth
will I ever see those who don't know now raised into the fold
will I ever see in darkness dimly light now grown So bold
will I ever see a spirit to an empty light that has gone So cold
will I ever see into an unknown life upon the world
will I ever see heaven to my child given birth
will I ever see peace on earth
