Refrain: I do not know how long ’twill be, nor what the future holds for me, but this I know: if Jesus leads me, I shall get home some day. 2 Oftentimes my sky is clear, joy abounds without a tear; though a day so bright begun, clouds may hide tomorrow’s sun. There’ll be a day that’s always bright, a day that never yields to night, and in its light the streets of glory I shall behold some day. [Refrain] 3 Harder yet may be the fight; right may often yield to might; wickedness a while may reign; Satan’s cause may seem to gain. There is a God that rules above, with hand of power and heart of love; if I am right, he’ll fight my battle, I shall have peace some day. [Refrain] 4 Burdens now may crush me down, disappointments all around; troubles speak in mournful sigh, sorrow through a tear-stained eye. There is a world where pleasure reigns, no mourning soul shall roam its plains, and to that land of peace and glory I want to go some day. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: SOMEDAY
