[Intro: Pastor T. L. Barrett & (Choir)]
(Nobody knows) Mmm (all the trouble I've seen)
(Nobody knows) Mmm (all my sorrow)
(Glory! Glory!) Mmm (Glory, Hallelujah!)
(Glory!) Mmm, (Glory!)
Let me hear you
(Glory, Hallelujah!)
Nobody knows (Nobody knows)
Mmm, no, no, no (all the trouble I've seen)
Nobody knows (Nobody knows)
Mmm, no, no (all my sorrow)
Glory! (Glory!), Glory! (Glory!), Glory! (Glory, Hallelujah!)
Say it again (Glory!), say it to the lord (Glory!)
Mmm (Glory, Hallelujah!)
[Verse: Pastor T. L. Barrett]
I've been used and I've been scorned
I've been talked about, yes I have
Just as sure as you're born
This is a mean world to try to live in
But you've got to stay ahead until you die
Without a mother
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
Don't even have a father
I'm looking for my sister, I can't even find my brother
And I wish I had somebody say
[Refrain: Pastor T. L. Barrett & (Choir)]
(Glory!) Glory! (Glory!)
Mmm (Glory, Hallelujah!)
Glory! (Glory!) Glory! (Glory!) Glory! (Glory, Hallelujah!)
When you get [?] (Glory!)
That's all you got to say is glory (Glory!)
Glory! (Glory, Hallelujah!)
Friends walk away from you (Glory!)
Just look away and say glory (Glory!)
Thank the Lord for another day
Glory! (Glory, Hallelujah!)
I've got eyes to see (Glory!)
It's ahead (Glory!)
For us to talk (Glory, Hallelujah!)
Glory! (Glory!) Glory! (Glory!) Glory! (Glory, Hallelujah!)
Nobody knows (Nobody knows)
Aw, naw, naw (all the trouble I've seen)
Nobody knows (Nobody knows)
All my sorrow (all my sorrow)
Glory! (Glory!) Glory! (Glory!) Glory! (Glory, Hallelujah!)
Glory! (Glory!) Glory! (Glory!)
(Glory, Hallelujah!)
[Outro: Pastor T. L. Barrett & (Choir)]

(Nobody, nobody, nobody)
(Nobody, nobody, nobody)
(Nobody, nobody, nobody)
(Nobody, nobody, nobody)
Nobody
(Nobody, nobody, nobody)
Nobody
(Nobody, nobody, nobody)
I tried to tell the white man
(Nobody, nobody, nobody)
But he could not understand
(Nobody, nobody, nobody)
I tried to tell the black man
(Nobody, nobody, nobody)
But he refused to take my hand
(Nobody, nobody, nobody)
(Nobody knows) Mmm (all the trouble I've seen)
(Nobody knows) Mmm (all my sorrow)
(Glory! Glory!) Mmm (Glory, Hallelujah!)
(Glory!) Mmm, (Glory!)
Let me hear you
(Glory, Hallelujah!)
Nobody knows (Nobody knows)
Mmm, no, no, no (all the trouble I've seen)
Nobody knows (Nobody knows)
Mmm, no, no (all my sorrow)
Glory! (Glory!), Glory! (Glory!), Glory! (Glory, Hallelujah!)
Say it again (Glory!), say it to the lord (Glory!)
Mmm (Glory, Hallelujah!)
