Some Day I Know

Author: A. Wexels Hymnal: Hymnal for Church and Home #249 (1927) Meter: 11.10.11.10 First Line: Some day, I know, the mist that life is veiling Lyrics: 1 Some day, I know, the mist that life is veiling Shall roll away and darkness disappear Before the day with radiance never failing On which my path shall lie before me clear. 2 Some day, I know, all mysteries perplexing Which here I never quite could understand, With all my problems yet unsolved and vexing, Shall be revealed, and I shall see God's hand. 3 Some day, I know, all sorrow shall have vanished, All wounds be healed and ev'ry want supplied. All tears shall cease, all sighs for aye be banished; In love's embrace all unrest shall subside. 4 Some day, I know, I shall appear before Him Whom here I hold in love's and faith's embrace, Shall humbly kneel and gratefully adore Him, And with mine eyes behold Him face to face. 5 Some day, I know, for sin no longer slaving, Each tho't and word and deed unstained and pure, I shall not even fear a sinful craving My purity and bliss might e'er obscure. 6 Some day, I know, in yonder realms of glory, I and the friend I found while on the way Shall speak of that new life and tell the story Of this old life, dimmed like a dream by day. 7 My Savior, give my heart this sweet conviction Each time the way seems long and full of pain, That it may lighten ev'ry deep affliction And cause a smile to shine through tears again.
