Some day a glad­some mes­sage
Will fall up­on mine ear;
Some day His bless­èd wel­come
Will fill my heart with cheer.

Refrain

Some day, some day
The jour­ney I’ll com­plete,
And when the Fa­ther calls me home,
I’ll rest at Je­sus’ feet.

Some day in yon blest ha­ven,
I’ll walk with Him in white;
Some day re­demp­tion’s sto­ry
Will be my heart’s de­light.

Refrain

Some day the noise of bat­tle
Will greet my ears no more;
Some day I’ll walk tri­um­phant
On Ca­naan’s hap­py shore.

Refrain

Some day I’ll meet my loved ones,
Who’ve passed to realms ab­ove;
Some day I’ll hear them sing­ing
Sweet songs of Je­sus’ love.
