Some day, we say, and turn our eyes
Up to the gates of pa­ra­dise;
Some day I’ll be with Je­sus there,
And all His bliss eter­nal share.

Refrain

Some day, some time, some hour I’ll be
At home, my Sav­ior, home with Thee,
Some day, some time, some hour I’ll be
At home, my Sav­ior, home with Thee.

Some day, we say, and sad­ly lay
Our dear ones in the grave away,
Some day we’ll see and clasp their hands,
In yonder bright im­mor­tal lands.

Refrain

Some day, we say, and sweet­ly sing
The tri­umphs of our Sav­ior king,
Some day, sweet hope, ’twill not be long,
And we shall sing a sweet­er song.

Refrain

Some day, we say, O Lord, how long
Must right suc­cumb to boast­ing wrong?
Some day—sweet hope our souls en­dow,
Till we can feel ’tis al­most now.
