Living below in this ole sinful world Hardly a comfort can afford Striving alone to face temptation's pow'r Where could I go but to the Lord Where could I go, oh where could I go Seeking a refuge for my soul Needing a friend to help me in the end Where could I go but to the Lord Life here is grand with friends I love so dear We get along in sweet accord Yet when I face those chilling hands of death Where could I go but to the Lord Where could I go, oh where could I go Seeking a refuge for my soul Needing a friend to help me in the end Where could I go but to the Lord Neighbors are kind I love them ev'ryone Comfort I get from God's own word But when my soul needs manna from above Where could I go but to the Lord Where could I go, oh where could I go Seeking a refuge for my soul Needing a friend to help me in the end Where could I go but to the Lord
