Life's evening sun is sinking low
With a few more days and I must go
Oh, to meet the deeds that
I have done,
and there will be no setting sun.
Tempted and tried
we're oft made to wonder
Why it shouldn't be thus all
the day long
Father of us, living about us,
never molested,
though in the wrong,
though in the wrong.
Father,
I long will know all about it
Father, I long will understand why
Cheer up my brothers,
live in the sunshine
We'll understand it all by and by,
all by and by
You
Fatherland, we know all about it
Fatherland, we understand why
Cheer up my brother,
live in the sunshine,
we'll understand it all by and by,
all by an d by.
