Lyrics

 

Nobody knows the trouble I've seen
Nobody knows but He knows my sorrow
Yes, nobody knows the trouble I've seen
But glory, Hallelujah

Sometimes I'm standing crying
Tears running down my face
I cry to the Lord, have mercy
Help me run this all race

Oh Lord, I have so many trials
So many pains and woes
I'm asking for faith and comfort
Lord, help me to carry this load, whoo

Nobody knows the trouble I've seen
Well, no, nobody knows but Jesus
No nobody knows, oh the trouble, the trouble I've seen
I'm singing…
