In this world of trials and sorrows,
We question why the wicked thrive.
We face the pain of lost tomorrows,
Yet hold our faith, we will survive.
Further along, we'll understand,
The reasons for the trials at hand.
So cheer up, friend, walk in the light,
We'll see it clear, in heaven's sight.
When death comes knocking at our door,
And takes the ones we hold so dear,
We wonder why, we hurt so sore,
While others live without a fear.
Further along, we'll understand,
The reasons for the trials at hand.
So cheer up, friend, walk in the light,
We'll see it clear, in heaven's sight.
Faithful till the end we'll be,
Through every storm and troubled sea.
A brighter day is sure to come,
When we all reach our heavenly home.
Further along, we'll understand,
The reasons for the trials at hand.
So cheer up, friend, walk in the light,
We'll see it clear, in heaven's sight.
