Trials dark on every hand, and we cannot understand
All the ways that God will 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.
Oft our cherished plans have failed, disappointments have prevailed,
And we've wandered in the darkness, heavy hearted and alone;
Bet we're trusting in the Lord, and according to His Word,
We will understand it better by and by.
Temptations, hidden snares, often take us unawares,
And our hearts are made to bleed for each thoughtless word or deed;
And we wonder why the test, when we try to do our best,
But will understand it better by and by.
Words: Charles Tindley 1905
