Nobody knows the trouble I've seen.
Glory Hallelujah!

Oh, yes, Lord!
Sometimes I'm almost to the ground.
Oh, yes, Lord!

Now you may think that I don't know,
Oh, yes, Lord,
But I've had my troubles here below.
Oh, yes, Lord!

One day when I was walkin' along,
Oh, yes, Lord,
The sky opened up and love came down.
Oh, yes, Lord!

What makes old Satan hate me so?
Oh, yes, Lord,
He had me once and had to let me go.
Oh, yes, Lord!

Oh, yes, Lord,
When Jesus washed my sins away.
Oh, yes, Lord!
