Farther Along Lyrics - Trio - Dolly Parton

Tempted and tried, we're oft made to wonder 

Why it should be thus all day long 

While there are others living about us 

Never molested though in the wrong 

When death has come and taken our loved ones 

It leaves our home so lonely and drear 

Then do we wonder why others prosper 

Living so wicked year after year 

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 'til death, said our loving Master 

A few more days to labor and wait 

Toils of the road will then seem as nothing 

As we sweep through the beautiful gates
