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 brother live in the sunshine we'll understand it all by and by

When we see Jesus coming in glory when he comes from that home in the sky
Then we shall meet him in all his glory we'll understand it all by and by
Farther along

We'll understand it all by and by
