Tempted and tried, we're off made to wonder
Why it should be thus all the day long
While there are others living about us
Never molested, though in the wrong
Father alone will know all about it
Father alone will understand why
Cheer up my brother, live in the sunshine
We'll understand it all by and by
When death has come and [D]
taken our [A] love
It leaves our [F] home so [F#] lonely [E] and dear
Then do we [A]
wonder
[D] [A]
Living so wicked year after year
Father alone will know all about it
Father [A#] alone [A] will understand why
Cheer up my brother, [D#] live in the [A]
sunshine
We'll understand it all by and by
[C#] When Jesus comes, [G] coming [A#] in [A] glory
When he comes from his [F#m] [A] home in the sky
Then we shall meet him [D] in that [A] bright mansion
We'll understand it all by and by
Father alone will know all about it
Father alone will understand why
Cheer up my brother, [N] live in the sunshine
We'll understand it all by and by
Why it should be thus all the day long
While there are others living about us
Never molested, though in the wrong
Father alone will know all about it
Father alone will understand why
Cheer up my brother, live in the sunshine
We'll understand it all by and by
When death has come and [D]
taken our [A] love
It leaves our [F] home so [F#] lonely [E] and dear
