Farther Along

Tempted and tried

We're oft made to wonder

Why it should take us

All the day long

While there are others

Living about us

Never molested

Though in the wrong.



Farther along

We'll know all about

Farther along

We'll understand why

Cheer up my brother

Live in the sunshine

We'll understand it

All by and by.



--- Instrumental ---



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.



Farther along

We'll know all about

Farther along

We'll understand why

Cheer up my brother

Live in the sunshine

We'll understand it

All by and by.



We'll understand it

All by and by...
