Verse 1 Well I'm a son of coal, a daughter of tar From the dust you came, from the dust you are We're not beautiful, not yet, O young heart Yeah, the rain has yet to fall and make mud of my scars
Chorus Well so soon my heart will know You Without a veil between us I'll see Your face and become like You
Verse 2 Well I'm the son of a woman, the daughter of man From the dust you came, from the dust I am We're not home, not yet, O that distant land Yeah, we've still a few roads left to travel without the sight of Your hand
Chorus Yeah, so soon my heart will know You Without a veil between us I'll see Your face and become like You, like You I'll see Your face and become like You
Verse 3 Well I'm a son of the valley, the daughter of fear From the dust we're raised and from the dust we're reared We're not whole, not yet, O but we're drawing near There's still a few hours left tonight before the sun dries our tears Yeah, there's still a few hours left tonight before the sun dries our tears
Chorus So soon my heart will know You Without a veil between us I'll see Your face and become like You
