text: Tempted and tried
  We’re oft made to wonder
  Why it should be thus
  All the day long
  And while there are others
  Living about us
  Never molested
  Though in the wrong
  Farther along we’ll
  Know all about it
  And farther along we’ll
  Understand why;
  Cheer up my brother
  Live in the sunshine
  We’ll understand it
  All by and by
  When we see Jesus
  Coming in glory
  When He comes from His
  Home in the sky
  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
  And farther along we’ll
  Understand why;
  Cheer up my brother
  Live in the sunshine
  We’ll understand it
  All by and by
