WE’LL UNDERSTAND IT BETTER BY AND BY - UMH 525 (Capo 1st fret – Play E key) E A E 1. We are tossed and driven on the restless sea of time, F# B7 Somber skies and howling tempests oft succeed a bright sunshine E A E In that land of perfect day, when the mists have rolled away, B7 E We will understand it better by and by: E A E Refrain : By and by, when the morning comes F# B7 When the saints of God are gathered home, E A E We’ll tell the story how we’ve overcome, B7 E For we’ll understand it better by and by. E A E 2. We are often destitute of the things that life demands F# B7 Want of food and want of shelter, thirsty hills and barren lands; E A E We are trusting in the Lord, and according to God’s word, B7 E We will understand it better by and by. E A E 3. Trials dark on every hand, and we cannot understand, F# B7 All the ways that God would lead us to that blessed promised land; E A E But he guides us with his eye, and we’ll follow till we die, B7 E For we’ll understand it better by and by. E A E 4. Temptations hidden snares often take us un-awares, F# B7 And our hearts are made to bleed for a thoughtless word of deed; E A E And we wonder why the test when we try to do our best B7 E But we’ll understand in better by and by.
