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!
And I shall see Him face to face,
And tell the story — Saved by grace j
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 heaven for me.
And I shall see Him face to face,
And tell the story — Saved by grace j
And I shall see Him face to face,
And tell the story — Saved by grace.
Some day, when fades the golden sun
Beneath the rosy-tinted west,
My blessed Lord shall say, “Well done! "
And I shall enter into rest,
And I shall see Him face to face,
And tell the story — Saved by grace j
And I shall see Him face to face,
And tell the story — Saved by grace.
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.
And I shall see Him face to face,
And tell the story — Saved by grace j
And I shall see Him face to face,
And tell the story — Saved by grace.
