its for me a glad tomorrow,
Where gates of pearl swing open wide,
And when I've passed this vale of sorrow,
I’ll camp upon the other side
(Chorus)
Some d
ay beyond the reach of mortal ken,
Some day, God only knows just where and when,
The wheels of mortal life shall all stand still,
And I shall go to dwell on Zion’s hill
(Verse)
Some d
ay I’ll hear the angles singing,
Beyond the shadows of the tomb;
And all the bells of heaven ringing,
While saints are singing, “Home, sweet Home.”
(Chorus)
Some d
ay beyond the reach of mortal ken,
Some day, God only knows just where and when,
The wheels of mortal life shall all stand still,
And I shall go to dwell on Zion’s hill
(Verse)
Some d
ay my labors will be ended,
And all my wand’rings will be o’er,
And all earth’s broken ties be mended,
And I shall sigh and weep no more
(Chorus)
Some d
ay beyond the reach of mortal ken,
Some day, God only knows just where and when,
The wheels of mortal life shall all stand still,
And I shall go to dwell on Zion’s hill
(Verse)
Some d
ay the dark clouds will be rifted,
And all the night of gloom be past;
And all life’s burdens will be lifted,
The day of rest shall dawn at last
(Chorus)
Some d
ay beyond the reach of mortal ken,
Some day, God only knows just where and when,
The wheels of mortal life shall all stand still,
And I shall go to dwell on Zion’s hill
