Saved By Grace

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!

Refrain

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.

Refrain

Some day, when fades the golden sun
Beneath the rosy tinted west,
My blessèd Lord will say, “well done!”
And I shall enter into rest.

Refrain

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.

Refrain
