[Verse 1]
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 brothers, live in the sunshine
We'll understand it all by and by
[Verse 2]
When death has come and taken our loved ones
Leaving our home life so lonesome and drear
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 brothers, live in the sunshine
We'll understand it all by and by
Farther Along was written by W. B. Stevens.
