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.

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.

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.

Some day till then I'll watch and wait
My lamp all trimmed and burning bright
That when my Savior opes the gate
My soul to Him may take its flight.
