Someday 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!
Chorus:
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
Someday 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.
Someday, when fades the golden sun
Beneath the rosy-tinted west,
My blessed Lord will say, “Well done!”
And I shall enter into rest.
Someday: till then I’ll watch and wait,
My lamp all trimmed and burning bright,
That when my Saviour opens the gate,
My soul to Him may take its flight.
尘世网罗我将去掉，
生前苦味永不再尝，
灵魂升天何等荣耀，
在父宫殿欢喜颂扬。
副歌：
我必要见主面对面，
永远歌唱救我恩典，
我必要见主面对面，
永远歌唱救我恩典。
世上帐棚将要残坏，
不知何时就临眼前，
来生住处救主预备，
在父家里享福完全。
世间日月将要坠落，
美好光阴忽然快过，
主已应许忠心奴仆，
与我同来永远安乐。
我今儆醒务要等待，
把灯剔亮望主快来，
天门大开救主领导，
在祂足前感谢跪拜。
