Farther Along | Jimmy Lee Swaggart

Jimmy Lee and Jerry Lee: The Boys From Ferriday
JIM RECORDS | SonLife Broadcasting Network

We are so thrilled to finally offer Gospel music from cousins Jimmy Swaggart and Lee Lewis together—just two boys from Ferriday.

Farther Along
Songwriters: W.B. Stevens

Tempted and tried, we’re 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.

Refrain:
Farther along we’ll know more about it,
Farther along we’ll understand why;
Cheer up, my brother, live in the sunshine,
We’ll understand it all by and by.

Sometimes I wonder why I must suffer,
Go in the rain, the cold, and the snow,
When there are many living in comfort,
Giving no heed to all I can do.

Tempted and tried, how often we question
Why we must suffer year after year,
Being accused by those of our loved ones,
E’en though we’ve walked in God’s holy fear.

Often when death has taken our loved ones,
Leaving our home so lone and so drear,
Then do we wonder why others prosper,
Living so wicked year after year.

“Faithful till death,” saith our loving Master;
Short is our time to labor and wait;
Then will our toiling seem to be nothing,
When we shall pass the heavenly gate.

Soon we will see our dear, loving Savior,
Hear the last trumpet sound through the sky;
Then we will meet those gone on before us,
Then we shall know and understand why.

A beautiful song from the heart and soul.

[anidiamond]

When we see Jesus, we'll understand it all by and by

[cynthiaparris]

I had this song played at my youngest daughter s funeral when they rolled my precious child out because right now I don't understand why she had to leave, but Farther Along some day I will understand it all. I miss my baby girl so bad, but someday I'll see her again. She was grown but still my child. If not for my JESUS some day's I couldn't make it. It's hard some day's to even get out of the bed. GOD has give me strength to push on. GLORY TO HIS NAME ❤

This Man has a great anointing on his life and has been a Witness to me throughout all those years I watched his ministry and was not a Christian but his ministry touched my heart. 📖🌞

Awesome! Still praying to Almighty God for long and healthy life to the Man of God.

[craigbachman]

Great backup singers and a great engineer and "poof" instant choir!!!

[mwarner]

Beautiful 👏. Stay strong man of God. The anointing is still so rich upon you. Your music lead me to the throne of God when I was a baby Christian years ago. So glad you're still here. God bless you brother Swaggart.

[mosrite]

Awesome anointing power this song has. Nobody can bring out such brilliance as Jimmy. Precious old gospel song, There's no need for all these new gospel songs great as they are when the "Old" gospel songs are still just fine. It just takes someone as Jimmy to bring it out to perfection. Praise our Lord Jesus, Glory to the precious name.

I love this song. Someday we'll know why are trials happened, deaths, accidents, Covid, cancer, end of life situations. The list goes on lost loves ones, failed marriages, financial failures, and worst of all personal misunderstandings. But remember "he who endures to the end the same shall be saved", Matt. 24: 13. 🙂🤗
