Farther Along as sung by Jimmy Swaggart live at Family Worship Center. Available on the DVD/CD "Jimmy Swaggart - Live From Family WOrship Center" at www.shopjsm.org.

The lyrics to the song were written in 1911 by Rev. W. A. Fletcher, an itinerant preacher, while he was travelling to the Indian Territories by train. Fletcher was feeling depressed because his wife was expecting their first-born child in a few weeks and he wouldn't be present for the occasion. He felt that his priorities were with his ministry in the Indian Territories and wrote the lyrics to reflect his frame of mind at the time. Sitting next to him on the train was J. R. Baxter, a gospel music promoter who was quite taken with the lyrics that Fletcher was writing and offered him $2.00 for them. Mr. Baxter subsequently had them put to music and the song has been quite popular in the gospel music arena ever since.

I want to know HIM FOR THAT IS THE ANSWER TO LIFE HERE AND LIFE ETERNAL.....FOR Jesus said come unto Me for I am meek and lowly in heart and ye shall find rest unto your soul.....so come to the saviour today He is waiting for He is the only way one can be saved be washed in His blood and then we can come to God....and call Him Our Father which art in heaven........

Power in high places like Hollywood have brainwashed people to despise the Catholic Church. Americans think all Priests are evil pedophiles and that's what they want you to believe. America is morally slipping into the darkness of sin. I pray that all Christians come home to Christ's first Church, the Catholic Church. So we may be like so many other Nations, one people under one banner.

As Jimmy has said before, they don't write them like this anymore. This song tells of a truth about life. Also it tells of a truth that our Jesus will come to get us. Praise God. As the Apostle said in paraphrase, the trials and heartaches of this life cannot compare to the glory that God has in store for us. God Bless You Very Much brother Jimmy Swaggart.
