HAND IN HAND AGAIN
(Raymond B. Egan / Richard A. Whiting,   1919)


There were tears in the hour that was darkest 
The hour that came just before dawn 
But a smile lurks today 
Where a tear used to stray 
And the curtain of darkness is drawn.

Not a sparrow may fall from the tree top 
Unknown to the angels above 
So then why should our fears 
Turn our smiles to tears
Heaven watches o'er all hearts that love.

Ev'ry heart is lighter 
Ev'ry smile is brighter 
Sad "Adieu is changing to Hello" again 
Sorrow walk'd before us 
But a pray'r watch'd o'er us 
We stray'd far buy here we are
Hand in Hand Again.
