Farther Along

Tempted and tried we're oft made to wonder
 Why it should be thus, all the day long
 While there are others, living about us
 Never molested though in the wrong
 Farther along we'll know all about it
 Farther along we'll understand why
 Cheer up my brother live in the sunshine
 We'll understand it all by and by
 When death has come and taken our loved ones
 It leaves our homes so lonely and drear
 And then do we wonder why others prosper
 Living so wicked year after year
 Farther along we'll know all about it
 Farther along we'll understand why
 Cheer up my brother live in the sunshine
 We'll understand it all by and by
 ♪
 When we see Jesus coming in glory
 When He comes down from His home in the sky
 Then we shall meet Him in that bright mansion
 We'll understand it all by and by
 Well farther along we'll know all about it
 Farther along we'll understand why
 Cheer up my brother live in the sunshine
 We'll understand it all by and by
 Yeah, we'll understand it all by and by
