We'll Understand It Better By and By
Author: Charles Albert Tindley Meter: Irregular with refrain Appears in 100 hymnals Topics: Gospel Hymns First Line: We are tossed and driven on the restless sea of time Refrain First Line: By and by, when the morning comes Lyrics: 1 We are tossed and driven
on the restless sea of time;
somber skies and howling tempests
oft succeed a bright sunshine;
in that land of perfect day,
when the mists have rolled away,
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’ll tell the story how we’ve overcome,
we’ll understand it better by and by.
2 We are often destitute
of the things that life demands,
want of food and want of shelter,
thirsty hills and barren lands;
we are trusting in the Lord,
and according to God's word,
we will understand it better by and by. [Refrain]
3 Trials dark on every 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]
4 Temptations, hidden snares,
often take us unawares,
and our hearts are made to bleed
for any 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]

'Tis heaven below my Redeemer to know,

And patiently waited an entrance to gain;
What shame that so long He entreated in vain,
For He is so precious to me. [Chorus]

No cloud in the heavens a shadow to cast;
His smile is upon me, the valley is past,
For He is so precious to me. [Chorus]

Where some day, thru faith in His wonderful grace,
I know I shall see Him– shall look on His face,
For He is so precious to me. [Chorus] Used With Tune: SO PRECIOUS

Through our great Redeemer's name,
Show Thy reconciled face,
Take away our sin and shame;
From our worldly cares set free,
May we rest this day in Thee.

May we feel Thy presence near;
May Thy glory meet our eyes,
While we in Thy house appear;
Here afford us, Lord, a taste
Of our everlasting feast.

Conquer sinners, comfort saints;
Make the fruits of grace abound,
Bring relief for all complaints;
Thus may all our Sabbaths prove,
Till we join the church above. Used With Tune: SABBATH

The Old Account Settled Long Ago
Author: F. M. G. Meter: 12.13.12.13 with refrain Appears in 122 hymnals Topics: Gospel Hymns First Line: There was a time I know When in the book of heav'n Refrain First Line: Long ago, long ago Lyrics: 1 There was a time I know,
When in the book of heav'n
An old account was standing
For sins yet unforgiv'n;
My name was at the top
And many things below,
I went unto the Keeper,
And settled long ago.
Chorus:
Long ago, long ago,
Yes, the old account was settled long ago,
And the record’s clear today,
For He washed my sins away,
When the old account was settled long ago.
2 The old account was large,
And growing ev'ry day,
For I was always sinning,
And never tried to pay;
But when I looked ahead
And saw such pain and woe,
I said that I would settle,
And settled long ago. [Chorus]
3 When at the judgment bar
I stand before my King,
And He the book will open,
He cannot find a thing;
Then will my heart be glad,
While tears of joy will flow,
Because I had it settled,
And settled long ago. [Chorus]
4 O sinner, seek the Lord,
Repent of all your sin,
For thus He has commanded,
If you would enter in;
And then if you should live
A hundred years below,
E'en here you’ll not regret it,
You settled long ago. [Chorus] Used With Tune: THE OLD ACCOUNT
The Old Account Settled Long Ago
