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 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 When death has come and taken our loved ones It leaves our homes so lonely and drear And 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 When we see Jesus coming in glory When He comes down from His home in the sky Then we shall meet Him in that bright mansion We'll understand it all by and by Well 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 Yeah, we'll understand it all by and by

Farther along and further in I've never gone, I've never been But I feel a shift, a turning in I've never felt before Farther along and further in There's a crack in the armor, an opening My heart seeing out, and my eyes see in But they've never seen before What I chased that couldn't be caught Wars I lost I shouldn't have fought Everything that can't be taught Farther along and further in I think I'm finally listening To some kind of spirit murmuring I've never heard before Hold the world and trust the wait The road back home is never straight Bang the drum and keep the faith Time, memory, love and grace The kindred eyes in a strangers face Lead down to the deeper place Farther along and further in We're atoms and stardust circling Catching the light, then we're gone again Farther along and further in

I took their smiles and I made them mine I sold my soul just to hide the light And now I see what I really am A thief, a whore, and a liar I run to you (Run away from this Hell) Call out your name (Giving up, giving in) I see you there (Still you are farther away) Farther away I'm numb to you, numb and deaf and blind You give me all but the reason why I reach but I feel only air at night Not you, not love, just nothing I run to you (Run away from this Hell) Call out your name (Giving up, giving in) I see you there (Still you are farther away) Farther away Don't leave me here, by myself I can't breathe I run to you (Run away from this Hell) Call out your name (Giving up, giving in) I see you there (Still you are farther away) Farther away I run to you (Run away from this Hell) Call out your name (Giving up, giving in) I see you there (Still you are farther away) Farther away Farther away Farther away Farther away Farther away Farther away
