Better Farther On - EBC - 8/24/2008

Better Farther On

Verse 1
As we travel down life's pathway.
Storms beset us on our way.
But beyond death's river Jordan,
Lies a field of endless day.

Chorus
Farther on still go farther
Count the milestones one by one.
Jesus will forsake you never.
It is better farther on.

Verse 2
Oh, my brother are you weary,
Of the roughness of the way
Does your strength begin to fail you?
And your vigor to decay

Verse 3
Oh, my sister bearing burdens
Much too heavy is your load
When you stumble in darkest valleys
Trust in Him He'll guide you through.

Verse 4
At my grave will you be singing
Tho' you weep for one that's gone.
Sing it as we once did sing it.
It is better farther on.
