Author: W. W. Titley; D. O. T. Hymnal: Timeless Truths #908 Meter: 8.8.8.8 D First Line: Someday we'll cease our toiling here Refrain First Line: Some blessed day, oh, joyful day Lyrics: 1 Someday we’ll cease our toiling here,
Our hopes are now on things above;
Someday, without a doubt or fear,
We’ll gather home to those we love.
Refrain:
Some blessed day, oh, joyful day,
When we shall speed from earth away!
Our feet shall press that golden shore,
To be with Christ forevermore.
2 Someday the cord of life will break,
That holds us to our house of clay,
In which we groan till we shall wake
In that fair home of endless day. [Refrain]
3 Oh, glorious hope, the sweet someday!
That hope the anchor of our soul,
To keep us saved in Christ the way,
And trusting Him though billows roll. [Refrain]
4 Someday—the time seems strangely near,
When life’s frail thread shall severed be,
And we shall see that home so dear,
From earthly cares forever free. [Refrain] Topics: Anticipation Scripture: 1 Thessalonians 4:17 Tune Title: [Someday we'll cease our toiling there]
