1 I am thinking today of that glorious time
When my soul shall have entered that Heaven-blest clime,
And the song of the ransomed shall ring thro' the skies
As the shouts of the ransomed in triumph arise.
Chorus:
Some day, some glorious day,
(Some beautiful day,)
When my soul shall be free from this cumbersome clay,
I shall join the glad song of the glorified throng
To praise my Redeemer, some day, some day.
2 Only sinners redeemed by the blood of the lamb,
Only those who thro' great tribulations have come,
have a part in the song which shall ring thro' the skies
As the shouts of the ransomed in triumph arise. [Chorus]
3 So I long for the day when His face I shall see,
And from earth's limitations my soul shall be free;
With no discordant note when His praises I'll sing-
Hallelujahs forever to Jesus my King! [Chorus]
