"Soon We Will be Done” by Kyle Pederson, 11/16/20 choral anthem sung by Trinity Soloists

Done with hatred and done with war; Come lift the lonely, come lift up the poor. Soon we will be done with the troubles of the world When heaven comes to earth. No more weepin' and wailin' When heaven comes to earth. Done! With the racism and sexism And all the isms and prisons that bind us, That blind us from the hurt of another. I want to be done, with addiction, With any affliction that takes a hold And won't let go, and speaks in lies and fiction. Yeah, I want to be done, with the things that divide us Instead of unite us, like the walls that we build, The hate instilled, we fill with judgement inside us. I want to be done, done with the violence, And the silence when facing injustice, but I wonder If you'd trust us if love was our compass. Soon! When we come together When! We stand up for each other, We will offer these hands and feet and Be Love, compassion and grace, come heaven to earth, Oh, Thy will be Done!
