Author: Charles J. Butler Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11685 Meter: 7.5.7.5.7.7.7.5 First Line: I shall lay the cross aside Lyrics: 1 I shall lay the cross aside,
Some day, some glad day;
Safely pass to Canaan’s side,
Some day, some glad day;
If I live a life of prayer,
And the cross for Jesus bear,
I a glorious crown shall wear,
Some day, some glad day.
2 I the sinners’ friend shall see,
Some day, some glad day;
See the wounds once made for me,
Some day, some glad day;
I shall press close to His side,
Who for me was crucified,
And shall then be satisfied,
Some day, some glad day.
3 I shall meet the friends of yore,
Some day, some glad day;
And with them the Lamb adore,
Some day, some glad day;
There at Jesus’ sacred feet
Saints of every clime I’ll meet,
Hold with them communion sweet,
Some day, some glad day.
4 I shall lean on Jesus’ breast,
Some day, some glad day;
Find a sweet, a perfect rest,
Some day, some glad day;
On that bright eternal shore
All our sorrows will be o’er;
We shall meet to part no more.
Some day, some glad day. Languages: English Tune Title: DULUTH
