fartheralong

Tempted and tried will oft' made to wonder,
Why it should be thus all the day long,
While there are others living about us,
Never more molested, though in the wrong.

Farther along we'll know 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,
Leaving our homes so lonely and drear,
Then do we wonder how others prosper,
Living so wicked year after year,

Farther along we'll know more about it,
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.
