Nobody knows the trouble I've seen
Nobody knows my sorrow
Nobody knows the trouble I've seen
Glory hallelujah
Sometimes I'm up, sometimes I'm down
Oh, yes, Lord
Sometimes I'm almost to the groun'
Oh, yes, Lord

Nobody knows the trouble I've seen
Nobody knows my sorrow
Nobody knows the trouble I've seen
Glory hallelujah
I wish that I could find a way
Oh, yes, Lord
But life is just one long, grey day
Oh, yes, Lord

Nobody knows the trouble I've seen
Nobody knows my sorrow
Nobody knows the trouble I've seen
Glory hallelujah
Glory hallelujah
