Verse 1
(D major) (G major) The (A major) story is told of a (B minor) young man
who was preparing for a long (A major) trip.
He (D major) told his friend, I am (E flat major) just about packed.
(D major) I only have to put in a guide (A major) book, a mirror,
a micro (B minor) scope, (A major) a lamp, (D major) a telescope,
a volume of (G major) fine poetry,
a package of old letters,
(D major) a few biographies,
a book of songs, (B minor) a sword,
a hammer,
(A major) and a set of books I've been studying.
(G major) But you can't get (D major) all that into
your bag,"
said his (A major) friend.
Oh, yes, I can, he replied.
It doesn't take much room.
With that, he placed his Bib (D major) le
in the corner (G major) of his suitcase
and closed the lid. (D major)
Tempted and tried,
we're (G major) oft made to (D major) wonder
Why it should be thus all the day (A major) long,
(D major) While there are others liv (G major) ing (D major) about us,
Never molested, (A major) though in the (D major) wrong.
Farther along we'll (G major) know all (D major) about it,
Farther along we'll understand (A major) why.
Cheer up, my (D major) brother,
(G major) live in the (D major) sunshine,
We'll understand it all (A major) by and (D major) by.
When we see Jesus com (G major) ing in (D major) glory,
When He comes from His
home in (A major) the sky,
Then (D major) we shall meet him (G major) in that bright (D major) mansion,
We'll understand it (A major) all, (D major)
Farther along we'll (G major) know all (D major) about it,
Farther along we'll understand (A major) why.
Cheer (D major) up my brother,
(G major) live in the (D major) sunshine
We'll understand it, (A major) all by and (D major) by
Farther Along
