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
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 sweet through the
Beautiful gate
And 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
Yes, we'll understand it
All by and by
