Saved by Grace

Author: Fanny J. Crosby Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #726 (1961) Topics: Longing for Christ and God First Line: Some day the silver cord will break Refrain First Line: And I shall see him face to face Lyrics: 1 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. 2 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] 3 Some day, when fades the golden sun Beneath the rosy-tinted west, My blessed Lord will say, "Well done!" And I shall enter into rest. [Refrain] 4. Some day: till then I'll watch and wait, My lamp all trimmed and burning bright, That when my Saviour opes the gate, My soul to him may take its flight. [Refrain] Amen.
