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

Often when death has taken our loved ones
Leaving our home so lone and so drear
Then do we wonder why others prosper
Living so wicked year after year

“Faithful till death,” saith our loving Master
Short is our time to labor and wait
Then will our toiling seem to be nothing
When we shall pass the heavenly gate

Soon we will see our dear, loving Savior
Hear the last trumpet sound through the sky
Then we will meet those gone on before us
Then we shall know and understand why
