| Somewhere I know there waits for me | B |
| A home that mocks the pomp of Earth | C |
| Eye hath not seen its majesty | B |
| Nor heart conceived its priceless worth | C |
| Talk not of crystal gems or gold | D |
| Or towers that flame in changeless light | E |
| Imagination weak and cold | D |
| Faints far below the unmeasured height | E |
| And through its open doors for aye | - |
| As ages after ages glide | F |
| Without a moment's pause or stay | G |
| Flows grandly in the living tide | F |
| Brothers redeemed ones pressing home | H |
| From every clime from every shore | I |
| Beneath that fair celestial dome | H |
| Meet to be parted nevermore | I |

| Somewhere I know there waits for me | B |
| A holy tranquillized repose | J |
| Calmer than summer noontides be | B |
| Softer than twilight's tenderest close | K |
| Peace deeper than the peace that stole | L |
| O'er the vexed Galilean flood | M |
| When One Almighty to control | L |
| Breathed o'er it the still peace of God | A |
| To break that calm no throbbing pain | N |
| May ever come no chilling fears | O |
| No hopes unreached no yearnings vain | N |
| No love light quenched in sorrow's tears | P |
| But while eternal ages glide | F |
| That hallowed peace without alloy | Q |
| Shall still increase and still abide | F |
| A deepening fount of holiest joy | Q |

| Somewhere I know there wait for me | B |
| Sweet tones that wander back betimes | P |
| Through the charmed gates of Memory | B |
| Like far off swell of Sabbath chimes | P |
| And fair sweet faces dimly seen | R |
| In the uncertain light of dreams | P |
| And glances tender and serene | R |
| As star beams mirrored soft in streams | P |
| They wait for me who long have missed | S |
| From the lone paths I since have pressed | T |
| The hands I clasped the lips I kissed | S |
| The loves that life's young morning blessed | T |
| Wait long while still through mist and tears | P |
| I darkly wend my pilgrim way | G |
| Until for me the dawn appears | P |
| And night gives place to perfect day | G |

| - | |
| Somewhere I know in brighter lands | P |
| ONE waits the Fairest of the Fair | V |
| With loving words and gentle hands | P |
| To welcome all who gather there | V |
| Father I will we heard Him say | G |
| That those whom thou hast given me | B |
| Be with me where I am that they | G |
| My glory evermore may see | B |
| And there without a veil between | R |
| The sweetness of His face to hide | F |
| Him whom I've loved yet never seen | R |
| I shall behold well satisfied | F |
| And viewing Him shall sweetly be | B |
| Transformed into His image bright | E |
| And through a glad Eternity | B |
| Walk in His love's unclouded light | E |
