Farther Along
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.
Chorus:
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.
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 gate.
Back to Chorus:
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.
This song has helped me many times. It's hard not to question why things happen. But I do know that God has a reason and a purpose for all things. So we will understand it all one day!!!
