Farther Along
Sung by Dolly Parton, Linda Ronstadt, Emmylou Harris
Tempted and tried, we're oft made to wonder
Why it should be thus all day long
While there are others living about us
Never molested though in the wrong
When death has come and taken our loved ones
It leaves our home so lonely and drear
Then do we wonder why others prosper
Living so wicked year after year
[Chorus]
Further along we'll know all about it
Further along we'll understand why
Cheer up my brother, live in the sunshine
We'll understand it all, by and by
Faithful 'till death, said our loving Master
A few more days to labor and wait
Toils of the road will then seem as nothing
As we sweep through the beautiful gates
[Chorus]
Further along we'll know all about it
Further along we'll understand why
Cheer up my brother, live in the sunshine
We'll understand it all, by and by.........
I am enjoying your blog so much. I believe I may be a descendant of Valentine Collins also. Can you email me?
ReplyDeleteNell, I'm not Don. He was my cousin and passed away two years ago. I only keep posting the Sunday Morning Mountain Gospel Music in his memory. I also have no way to see your email address and I don't think you'd want to post it here in public.
