  Some day, not far away, In Heaven above, Both you and I, Who say the last good-bye, Shall meet and love. Some day, beyond life’s way Of cares and tears, Your soul and mine, With Christ, the Soul divine, Shall know no fears. Some day, when others pray With tear-stained eyes, You’ll take my hand And we shall understand In Paradise. Some day, when others stay To do life’s part, We’ll reach the goal Each standing soul to soul,— Not heart to heart. Some day, when others say:— “Their lot was sad,” We’ll know the why; In Heaven both you and I Shall be more glad. Some day, when earth is gay On land and sea, Beyond life’s shore We two, who patience bore, Shall thankful be. Some day,—some brighter day Than all the rest, Both you and I Shall say no more: “Good-bye,” But:—“God knows best.” |
