Some Day, Somewhere

Author: Irma B. Matthews Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #6194 First Line: Some day the journey will be done Refrain First Line: Some day, some day Lyrics: 1. Some day the journey will be done, Somewhere we’ll find a promised rest; Some day all sorrow turn to joy, Somewhere, some day we shall be blest. Refrain Some day, some day, Somewhere, the place we cannot see; Some day, some day, Somewhere the Savior waits for me. 2. Some day we’ll meet our loved and lost, Somewhere in some far brighter land; Some day we’ll sing the new, new song, And join with praise an angel band. [Refrain] 3. Some day our Lord will call us home, Somewhere we’ll lay our burden down; Some day, if we have faithful been, Somewhere we will receive a crown. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Some day the journey will be done]
