Trials dark on every hand, and we cannot understand
All the ways that God would lead us to that blessed promised land
But he'll guide us with his eye, and we'll follow 'till we die
We will understand it better by and by
Chorus:
By and by, when the morning comes,
When the saints of God are gathered home,
We will tell the story we've overcome
We will understand it better by and by.
Temptations, hiddens 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 by and by
Chorus (x2)
