SOME TIME WE'LL UNDERSTAND
1. Not now, but in
the coming years,
It may be when with
Christ we stand.
We'll read the
meaning of our tears,
And there,
sometime, we'll understand.
Refrain
Then trust in God
thro' all thy days;
Fear not, for He
doth hold thy hand;
Though dark thy
way, still sing and praise,
Sometime, sometime
we'll understand.
2. We'll catch the
broken thread again,
And finish what we
here began;
God will the
mysteries explain,
And then, ah, then,
we'll understand.
3. We'll know why
clouds instead of sun
Were over many a
cherished plan;
Why song has ceased
when scarce begun;
'Tis then, sometime,
we'll understand.
4. Why what we long
for most of all,
Eludes so oft our
eager hand;
Why hopes are crushed
and castles fall,
Up there, sometime,
we'll understand.
5. God knows the
way, He holds the key,
He guides us with
unerring hand;
Sometime with
tearless eyes we'll see,
Yes, then 'tis
then, we'll understand.
