Farther Along

Chorus
Farther along we'll 4 know all a 1 bout it
Farther along we'll 2 understand 5 why
Cheer up my 1 brother 4 live in the 1 sunshine
We'll understand (6m) it 5 all by and 1 by

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

When death has come and taken our loved ones
It leaves our home so lonely and drear
Then do we wonder why others prosper
Living so wicked year after year

Faithful til death, said our loving Master
A few more days to labor and wait
Toils of the road will then seem as nothing
As we sweep through that beautiful gate

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
