FARTHER ALONG

1. Tempted and tried were oft 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.

Chorus

Farther along we'll know all about it;

Farther along we'll understand why;

Cheer up, my brother, live in the sunshine,

We'll understand it by and by.

2.When death has come and taken our loved ones,

It leaves our home so lonely and drear;

Then do we wonder why others prosper,

Living so wicked year after year.

Chorus

Farther along we'll know all about it;

Farther along we'll understand why;

Cheer up, my brother, live in the sunshine,

We'll understand it by and by.

3. Faithful till death said our long Master,

A few more days to labor and wait;

Toils of the road will then seem as nothing,

As we sweep through the beautiful gate.

Chorus

Farther along we'll know all about it;

Farther along we'll understand why;

Cheer up, my brother, live in the sunshine,

We'll understand it by and by.

4. When we see Jesus coming in glory,

When He comes from His home in the sky;

Then we shall meet Him in that bright mansion,

We'll understand it all by and by.

Chorus

Farther along we'll know all about it;

Farther along we'll understand why;

Cheer up, my brother, live in the sunshine,

We'll understand it by and by.

GOD’S MEASURELESS MERCY

Psalm 103

(RESPONSIVE)

Bless the Lord, O my soul; and all that is within me, bless his holy name.

Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:

Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;

Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies;

Who satisfieth thy mouth, with good things, so that thy youth is renewed like the eagles.

The Lord executeth righteousness and judgement for all that are oppressed.

He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of Israel.

The Lord is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous is mercy.

He will not always chide; neither will he keep his anger for ever.

He hath not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded us accordingly to our inequities.

For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy toward them that fear him.

As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us.

Like as a father pitieth his children, so the Lord pitieth them that fear him.

For he knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we are dust.

As for man, his days are as grass: as a flower of the field, so he flourish.

For the wind passeth over it, and it is gone; and the place thereof shall know it no more.

But the mercy of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear him, and his righteousness unto children’s children:

To such as keep his covenant, and to those that remember his commandants to do them.

The Lord hath prepared his throne in the heavens; and his kingdom ruleth over all.

Bless the Lord, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word.

Bless ye the Lord, all ye his hosts; ye ministers of his, that do his pleasure.

Bless the Lord, all his works in all places of the dominion: bless the Lord, O my soul.
