Lyrics

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 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 When death has come and taken our loved ones It leaves our home so lonely and dear Thеn do we wonder why others prospеr 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 Jesus coming, coming in glory When He come 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 He'll understand it all by and by
