151. Some day the silver cord will break
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;
And I shall see.....Him face to face...And tell the story.....Saved by grace.
2 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 Heav’n for me.
3 Some day, when fades the golden sun, Beneath the rosy tinted west,
My blessed Lord will say, “Well done!” And I shall enter into rest.
4 Some day: till then I’ll watch and wait, My lamp all trimmed and burning bright,
That when my Savior opens the gate, My soul to Him may take its flight.
