Full Lyrics
VERSE 1
Some day I'll cross this mystic stream,
It won't be long, it may be soon;
Some day I'll lay my burdens down,
It won't be long, it may be soon;
Some day I'll reach the golden shore
And dwell with Jesus evermore,
I'll meet the ones who've gone before,
It won't be long, it may be soon.
VERSE 2
Some day this mortal life shall cease,
It won't be long, it may be soon;
Some day I'll see my Saviour's face,
It won't be long, it may be soon;
Some day I'll leave this vale of tears,
Forget the struggles of long years,
I'll know no sorrow, pain, nor fears,
It won't be long, it may be soon.
VERSE 3
He's coming back with glory rare,
It won't be long, it may be soon;
We'll rise to meet Him in the air,
It won't be long, it may be soon;
If He should call me this I know,
I'm saved and ready now to go,
I'm waiting with my heart aglow;
It won't be long, it may be soon.
VERSE 4
Then as you travel on life's way,
Thro' waters deep, or billows foam,
You may have Jesus as your stay,
He'll walk with you and lead you home.
O brother, will you let Him in?
He'll save and keep you free from sin
Till heaven's door you enter in;
It won't be long, it may be soon.
