Religious Music - Farther Along lyrics

rate me

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 brothers, live in the sunshine

We'll understand it all by and by.

Faithful to death is our loving saviour

A few more days labour and wait

Toils of the road will then be as nothing

As we walk through that beautiful gate.

Farther along we'll know all about it

Farther along we'll understand why

Cheer up my brothers, live in the sunshine

We'll understand it all by and by.

When we see Jesus coming in glory

When He comes 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 brothers, live in the sunshine

We'll understand it all by and by.

Often I wonder why I must journey

Over a road so rugged and steep

While there are others living in comfort

While with the lost I labour and weep.

Farther along we'll know all about it

Farther along we'll understand why

Cheer up my brothers, live in the sunshine

We'll understand it all by and by...
