There Will Come a Day

I was thinking of my troubles

As people sometimes will

Everyone who had done my wrong

And those who would wrong me still

And in a fit of desperation

I found myself on my knees

Wishing pain and suffering

On all my enemies

I prayed for loss of limb

And lingering disease

Of blight and devastation

And assorted miseries

But as I made my wishes

And as I cast my spells

I stopped myself and said a prayer

And said these words to myself

There will come a day

There will come a day

When all of the evil

Will be washed away

The patient will be rewarded

And their tormentors will pay

There will come a day, lord

There will come a day
