|
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 home 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 |
|
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 |
