verse 1
As we travel through this desert
Storms beset us all the way,
But beyond the river Jordon
Lies a land 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
Let the Savior lead the way

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

verse 3
Jesus, Jesus we'll go with you
He will lead you to the throne
He will dye his garments for you
And the winepress trod alone

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

verse 4
At my grave I'll still be singing
Do not weep for one that's gone
Sing it as we once did sing it
"It is better, Farther on!"

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