Some Blessed Day

Daniel Otis Teasley • English

Primary Scripture: 1 Thessalonians 4:17

Verse 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.

Chorus

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.

Verse 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.

Chorus

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.

Verse 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.

Chorus

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.

Verse 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.

Chorus

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.
