Farther Along

Tested 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 still in the wrong



Chorus

Farther along we'll know more about it

Farther along we'll understand why

Cheer up my friends walk in the sunshine

We'll know more about it all by and by



When death has come and taken our loved ones

Leaving us so lonesome and drear

Then do we wonder why others prosper

Living as sinners year after year
