We’ll Understand It Better By and By.

(Key F)
[Verse 1]
F C
We are tossed and driven on the restless seas of time;
D7 G
Somber skies and howling tempest oft succeed a bright sunshine.
C C7 F C
In the land of perfect day, when the mists have rolled away,
G C
We will understand it better bye and bye.

[Chorus]
C F C
Bye and bye, when the morning comes;
D7 G
All the saints of God are gathered home.
C F C
We'll tell the story how we've overcome,
G C
And we'll understand it better bye and bye.

[Verse 2]
F C
We are often destitute of the things that life demands;
D7 G
Want of shelter and of food, thirsty hills and barren lands.
C C7 F C
We are trusting in the Lord and according to His word,
G C
We will understand it better bye and bye.

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
F C
Trials dark on every hand and we cannot understand
D7 G
All the ways the God would lead us To that blessed promised
land.
C C7 F C
But He guides us with His eye and we'll follow Him on high;
G C
And we'll understand it better bye and bye.

[Chorus]
