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

Want of shelter and of food, thirsty hills and barren lands.
We are trusting in the Lord, and according to His word,
We will understand it better by and by. [Chorus]
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. [Chorus]
4. Temptations, hidden snares, often take us unawares,
And our hearts are made to bleed for a thoughtless word or deed.
And we wonder why the test, when we try to do our best;

But we're trusting in the Lord,
and according to His Word,
We will understand it better by and by. [Chorus]

often take us unawares,
And our hearts are made to bleed
for some thoughtless word or deed,
And we wonder why the test

Pues yo soy la vida, yo soy el amor."
¡Oh Señor, condúcenos hasta tu amor!

os juntáis para cantar, estaré presente yo":
Esta fue la fiel promesa del Señor. [Estribillo]
