Let's sing another one of Stuart Hamblen's great songs, "Until Then":
My heart can sing when I pause to remember,
A heartache hear is but a stepping stone
Along a trail that's winding always upwards.
This troubled world is not my final home.
The things of earth dim and lose their value
If we recall they're borrowed for a while
And things of earth that cause the heart to tremble,
Remembered there will only bring a smile.
This weary world with all its toil and struggle
May take its toil of misery and strife.
The soul of man is like a waiting falcon,
When it's released it's destined for the skies,
But until then my heart will go on singing
Until then with joy I'll carry on,
Until the day my eyes behold the city,
Until the day God calls me home."
