When Jesus Deems It Best

Some day I’ll lay my bur­den down

And en­ter in­to rest;

Some day I’ll wear a star­ry crown

When Je­sus deems it best.

I know not when that day shall come

My Sav­ior knows when it is best;

But some day I shall reach my home

And be for­ev­er with the blest.

Some day my Sav­ior’s face I’ll see

And be for­ev­er blest;

Some day

I know not when ’twill be

But Je­sus knows when best.

Some day a voice shall call me home

To be my Fa­ther’s guest

Some day my feet shall cease to roam

When Je­sus deems it best.

Some day I’ll join the ran­somed throng

Of ev­ery good pos­sessed;

Some day I’ll sing the hap­py song

When Je­sus deems it best.
