Some day I’ll lay my bur­den down,
And en­ter in­to rest;
Some day I’ll wear a star­ry crown,
When Je­sus deems it best.

Refrain

I know not when that day shall come,
My Sav­ior knows when it is best;
But some day I shall reach my home,
And be for­ev­er with the blest.

Some day my Sav­ior’s face I’ll see
And be for­ev­er blest;
Some day, I know not when ’twill be,
But Je­sus knows when best.

Refrain

Some day a voice shall call me home,
To be my Fa­ther’s guest,
Some day my feet shall cease to roam,
When Je­sus deems it best.

Refrain

Some day I’ll join the ran­somed throng,
Of ev­ery good pos­sessed;
Some day I’ll sing the hap­py song,
When Je­sus deems it best.
