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.
