We'll Understand it Better By and By

We Will Understand it Better By and By

Refrain:
By and by when the morning comes,
When the saints of God are gathered home,
We will tell the story how we've overcome;
For we'll understand it better by and by.

Verse
Trials dark on ev'ry hand,
And we cannot understand,
All the ways that God would lead us
to that blessed Promised Land.
But he guides us with his eye
And we'll follow till we die.
For we'll understand it better by and by.

Refrain

Verse
Oft our cherished plans have failed,
disappointments have prevailed,
And we've wandered in the darkness,
heavy hearted and alone.
But we're trusting in the Lord,
and according to His Word,
We will understand it better by and by

Refrain

Verse
Temptations, hidden snares
Often take us unawares,
And our hearts are made to bleed
for some thoughtless word or deed.
And we wonder why the test
When we try to do our best,
But we'll understand it better by and by

Refrain
