Psalm 43:5 Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God.
The Psalmist is saying, "The Lord brings victory to my face."
I've seen a lot of faces that need the victory brought to them.
There will come a day when we will see the Lord face to face. What a day that will be when He dries the tears from our eyes.
Revelation 21:3-4 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.
[4] And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
Farther along we’ll know all about it.

“Tempted and tried we're oft' made to wonder — Why it should be thus all the day long, — While there are others living about us — Never molested, tho in the wrong.
“Farther along we'll know all about it. — Farther along we'll understand why. — Cheer up my brother, live in the sunshine, — We'll understand it all by and by.
“Faithful till death said our loving savior. — A few more days to labor and wa. — Toils of the road will then seem as nothing — As we sweep thru the beautiful gate.
“When we see Jesus coming in glory. — When He comes from His home in the sky. — Then we shall meet Him in that bright mansion, — We'll understand it all by and by.
