Some Sweet Day

Verse 1

We shall reach the river side, Some sweet day, some sweet day; We shall cross the stormy tide, Some sweet day, some sweet day; We shall press the sands of gold, While before our eyes unfold Heaven’s splendors, yet untold, Some sweet day, some sweet day.

Verse 2

We shall pass inside the gate, Some sweet day, some sweet day; Peace and plenty for us wait, Some sweet day, some sweet day; We shall hear the wondrous strain, Glory to the Lamb that’s slain; Christ was dead, but lives again, Some sweet day, some sweet day.

Verse 3

We shall meet our lost and own, Some sweet day, some sweet day; Gath’ring round the great white throne, Some sweet day, some sweet day; By the tree of life so fair, Joy and rapture everywhere; O the bliss of over there! Some sweet day, some sweet day.
