<div class="lyrics">
|
|
<p>We are tossed and driven on the restless sea of time;<br>
|
|
Somber skies and howling tempests oft succeed a bright sunshine;<br>
|
|
In that land of perfect day, when the mists have rolled away,<br>
|
|
We will understand it better by and by.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">By and by, when the morning comes,<br>
|
|
When the saints of God are gathered home,<br>
|
|
We’ll tell the story how we’ve overcome,<br>
|
|
For we’ll understand it better by and by.</p>
|
|
<p>We are often destitute of the things that life demands,<br>
|
|
Want of food and want of shelter, thirsty hills and barren lands;<br>
|
|
We are trusting in the Lord, and according to God’s Word,<br>
|
|
We will understand it better by and by.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p>Trials dark on every hand, and we cannot understand<br>
|
|
All the ways that God could lead us to that blessed promised land;<br>
|
|
But He guides us with His eye, and we’ll follow till we die,<br>
|
|
For we’ll understand it better by and by.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p>Temptations, hidden snares often take us unawares,<br>
|
|
And our hearts are made to bleed for a thoughtless word or deed;<br>
|
|
And we wonder why the test when we try to do our best,<br>
|
|
But we’ll understand it better by and by.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
