where could i go but to the lord

living below in this old sinful world

hardly a comfort can afford

striving alone to face temptation so

now won't you tell me

where could i go but to the lord

where could i go oh where could i go

seeking the refuge for my soul

needing a friend to save me in the end

won't you tell me

where could i go but to the lord

life here is grand with friends i love so dear

comfort i get from god's own word

yet when i face that chilling hand of death

won't you tell me

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 the refuge for my soul

needing a friend to save me in the end

won't you tell me

where could i go but to the lord
