By & By
We are often tossed and driving
On the restless sea of time
Somber skies and howling tempest
Oft succeed a bright sunshine
In that land of perfect day
When the mists have rolled away
We will understand it better by and by
By and by, when the morning comes
And all God's children are gathered home
We will tell the story of how we've overcome
And we'll understand it better by and by
We are often destitute
Of the things that life demands
Want of food and want of shelter
Thirsty hills and barren lands
We are trusting in the Lord
And according to His Word
We will understand it better by and by
Temptations, hidden snares
Often take us unawares
And our hearts are made to bleed
By some thoughtless word or deed
And we wonder why the test
When we try to do our best
We will understand it better by and by
By and by, when the morning comes
And all us children are gathered home
We will tell the story of how we've overcome
And we'll understand it better by and by
We will understand it better by and by
On the restless sea of time
Somber skies and howling tempest
Oft succeed a bright sunshine
In that land of perfect day
When the mists have rolled away
We will understand it better by and by
By and by, when the morning comes
And all God's children are gathered home
We will tell the story of how we've overcome
And we'll understand it better by and by
We are often destitute
Of the things that life demands
Want of food and want of shelter
Thirsty hills and barren lands
We are trusting in the Lord
And according to His Word
We will understand it better by and by
Temptations, hidden snares
Often take us unawares
And our hearts are made to bleed
By some thoughtless word or deed
And we wonder why the test
When we try to do our best
We will understand it better by and by
By and by, when the morning comes
And all us children are gathered home
We will tell the story of how we've overcome
And we'll understand it better by and by
We will understand it better by and by
