Farther Along

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Tempted and tried, we're oft made to wonder Why it should be thus all day long While there are others living about us Never molested though in the wrong [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] Further along we'll know all about it Further along we'll understand why Cheer up my brother, live in the sunshine We'll understand it all, by and by [Verse 3] Faithful 'till 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 the beautiful gates [Chorus] Further along we'll know all about it Further along we'll understand why Cheer up my brother, live in the sunshine We'll understand it all, by and by
