Not now but in the coming Years, It may be in the Better land, We'll read the meaning of our years, And there, sometime, we'll understand. We'll catch the broken threads again, And finish what we here began; Heaven will the mysteries explain, And then, ah, then we'll understand. Then trust in God through all thy days; Fear not! for he doth hold thy hand; Though dark thy way, still sing and praise; Sometime, sometime, we'll understand.
