Lyrics 1 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. 2 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) 3 Some day, when fades the golden sun Beneath the rosy-tinted west, My blessed Lord will say, “Well done!” And I shall enter into rest. (Refrain) 4 Some day: till then I’ll watch and wait, My lamp all trimmed and burning bright, That when my Saviour opes the gate, My soul to Him may take its flight. (Refrain)
