Farther Along Songtext
von Leslie Jordan

Oh, sometimes I do not feel worthy
Where′s vestal when you need her?

Tempted and tried, we're often made to wonder
Why it should be us all the day long
While there are others living amongst us
Never molested, though in the wrong

Farther along, we′ll know about it
Farther along, we'll understand why
Just cheer up, my brother, live in the sunshine
We'll understand it all by and by (Yes, we will)

Sister Morgan!


When we see Jesus coming in glory
When he comes down from his home in the sky
(I can′t stand it)
Then we shall meet him in that bright mansion
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

What about the boys?
Oh, yeah

Farther along, we′ll know about it (People, yes we will)
Farther along, we'll understand why (We′ll understand)
Won't you cheer up, my brother, live in the sunshine
And we'll understand it (We′ll understand it)
All by and by
Yes, we′ll understand it (We'll understand it)
All by and by
