Farther Along

Tempted and tried, we're oft made to wonder

Why it should be thus all day long

While there are others living about us

Never molested though in the wrong

When death has come and taken our loved ones

It leaves our home so lonely and drear

Then do we wonder why others prosper

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



Faithful 'til 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 gates



Repeat chorus
