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.

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.

We shall meet our loved 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.
