(Traditional - arranged by Elvis Presley)
|
(We'll understand it all by and by)
|
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
|
|
Farther along we'll know more 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
|
Leaving our homes so lonely and drear
|
Then do we wonder how others prosper
|
Living so wicked year after year
|
|
Farther along we'll know more about it
|
Farther along we'll understand why
|
Cheer up my brother live in the sunshine
|
We'll understand it all by and by
|
