This hymn has a unique tune

 

 1  Some day the silver cord will break,

    And I no more as now shall sing;

    But, O the joy when I shall wake

    Within the presence of the King!

 

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 with Him for me.

 

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.

 

 3  Or some day when my Lord will come,

    And called to meet Him I'll be blest,

    He then will say to me, "Well done,"

    And I shall enter into rest.

 

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.

 

 4  Some day, till then I'll watch and wait,

    My lamp all trimmed and burning bright,

    That when my Savior I will greet,

    My faith will then be changed to sight.

 

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.
