Living below, in this old sinful world
Hardly a comfort can afford
Striving alone, to face temptation's sword
Where could I go, but to the Lord
Where could I go, but to the Lord
Where could I go, oh where could I go
Seeking a refuge for my soul, for my soul
Needing a friend, to help me in the end
Where could I go, but to the Lord, to the Lord
Neighbors are so kind, I love them everyone
We get along in sweet accord, yes we do
But when my soul needs tending from above
Where could I go but to the Lord
Oh where could I go, oh where could I go
Seeking a refuge for my soul
When I'm needing a friend to help me in the end
Where could I go, but to the Lord, to the Lord
Where could I go, but to the Lord
Oh, when I'm needing a friend to help me in the end
Where could I go, but to the Lord, to the Lord
Where could I go, but to the Lord, to the Lord
Where could I go, but to the Lord
Amen
