Some day the silver cord will break,
And I no more as now shall sing;
But oh, the joy when I shall wake
Within the palace of the King!
Refrain
And I shall see Him face to face,
And tell the story�Saved by grace;
And I shall see Him face to face,
And tell the story�Saved by grace.
Some day my earthly house will fall.
I cannot tell how soon �twill be;
But this I know�my All in All
Has now a place in Heav�n for me.
Refrain
Some day, when fades the golden sun
Beneath the rosy tinted west,
My bless�d Lord will say, �Well done!�
And I shall enter into rest.
Refrain
Some day: till then I�ll watch and wait,
My lamp all trimmed and burning bright,
That when my Savior opens the gate,
My soul to Him may take its flight.
Refrain
