Lyrics

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
Tempted and tried, we're of' 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
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 till death," saith our loving Master
If you more days to labor and wait
Toils of the road will then seem as nothing
As we sweep through that beautiful gate
Farther along we’ll know all about it
Farther along we’ll understand why
Cheer up my sister, live in the sunshine
We’ll understand it, all by and by
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
Written by: Elvis Presley, Hank Williams, Sr.
