By And By

[Chorus]
Oh well it’s by and by when the morning comes (hallelujah)
When all the saints of God together went home
We’ll tell the story how we’ve overcome
And we’ll understand it better by and by, by and by

[Chorus]
Well it’s by, by and by
(By and by, by and by)
Lord when the morning comes
(When the morning comes, when the morning comes)
When all, all the saints
(All the saints, all the saints)
Of God together went home, woah
(God together wеnt home, God together wеnt home)
Then we’ll tell the story
(Yes we’ll tell the story, yes we’ll tell the story)
Just how we’ll overcome
(How we’ll overcome, how we’ll overcome)
You know we’ll understand it better
(Understand it better, understand it better)
By and by
(Understand it better by and by)

[Repeat in background during verse 1 & 2:]
(By and by, by and by)

[Verse 1]
Oh, trials dark on every hand
Lord we just can’t understand
You’ll know the ways only God would lead us
To that blessed promised land
Oh, he’ll guide us with his eye
Every time God will follow on till we die
Then we’ll understand it better
(Understand it better, understand it better)
By and by
(Understand it better by and by)

[Chorus]
Well it’s by, by and by
(By and by, by and by)

[Chorus]
Well it’s by, by and by, Lord
(By and by, by and by)
I said when the morning comes
(When the morning comes, when the morning comes)
When all the saints
(All the saints, all the saints)
Of God together went home, woah
(God together went home, God together went home)
Then we’ll, Lord, tell the story

Just how we’ll overcome
(How we’ll overcome, how we’ll overcome)
You know we’ll understand it better

[Verse 2]
Oh, my God moves in mysterious ways
You know his wonders to perform, I believe
He plants his footsteps way out on the sea
And rides every storm
Oh his ways, so hard to understand
No matter how, how we try
You know we’ll understand it better, child
(Understand it better, understand it better)
By and by, by and by by by
(Understand it better by and by)

[Chorus]
Well well well by, by and by
(By and by, by and by)
Lord when the morning comes

Of God ‘gether went home, yeahhh
(God together went home, God together went home)
Then we’ll, you know we’ll tell the story
(Yes we’ll tell the story, yes we’ll tell the story)
Just how we’ll overcome
(How we’ll overcome, how we’ll overcome)
You know we’ll understand it better
(Understand it better, understand it better)
By and by, well
(Understand it better by and by)

[Chorus]
Well well by, by and by
(By and by, by and by)
