Farther Along
J R BAXTER, JOHN STARLING
Tempted and tried
We're oft made to wonder
Why could it be thus
All the day long
When there are others
Living about us
Never molested
Though in the wrong
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
When death has come
And taken our loved ones
It's leaving 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
