Hark the voice of Jesus callin'
Come and work for him today
The fearless one, and the heart is fallin'
Come and work for Him today
You've got to walk that lonesome valley
You've got to walk it by yourself
There's no one here that can go there with you
You've got to go there by yourself
My mother told me when she's dyin'
Just before her breath was gone
My darlin' boy, but trust in Jesus,
for I leave you here alone
You've got to walk that lonesome valley
You've got to walk it by yourself
There's no one here that can go there with you
You've got to go there by yourself
Some people say John was a Baptist,
others say he was a Jew
But the Holy Bible tells us
that he was a preacher too
You've got to walk that lonesome valley
You've got to walk it by yourself
There's no one here that can go there with you
You've got to go there by yourself
Come and work for him today
The fearless one, and the heart is fallin'
Come and work for Him today
You've got to walk that lonesome valley
You've got to walk it by yourself
There's no one here that can go there with you
You've got to go there by yourself
My mother told me when she's dyin'
Just before her breath was gone
My darlin' boy, but trust in Jesus,
for I leave you here alone
You've got to walk that lonesome valley
You've got to walk it by yourself
There's no one here that can go there with you
You've got to go there by yourself
Some people say John was a Baptist,
others say he was a Jew
But the Holy Bible tells us
that he was a preacher too
You've got to walk that lonesome valley
You've got to walk it by yourself
There's no one here that can go there with you
You've got to go there by yourself
