Introduction

Some glad sweet day, the Mas­ter’s voice will call me,
To lay aside this life of toil and care;
On joy­ful wing I’ll mount to realms of glo­ry—
And meet my bless­èd Sav­ior in the air.

Refrain

Some glad sweet day, the jour­ney will be end­ed,
And we shall see Him face to face;
Around the throne with voices sweet­ly blend­ing,
We’ll sing the rich­es of His grace.

Some glad sweet day, the feet that have grown wea­ry,
In tra­vel­ing thro’ this lone­ly vale of tears;
Will find re­pose beyond this land of sha­dows,
And per­fect rest thro’ all the pass­ing years.

Refrain

Take cour­age, soul, nor ev­er fear nor fal­ter,
Thy Sav­ior will sup­ply abun­dant grace;
In that bright home where all is joy and glad­ness,
There we shall meet the Sav­ior face to face.
