"Lonesome Valley" lyrics

You gotta walk that lonesome valley
You gotta go there by yourself
There's no one here can go there with you
You gotta go there by yourself

Mother said while she was dying
And her breath was almost gone
Keep your trust in the Holy Bible
It will guide you safely home

You gotta walk that lonesome valley
You gotta go there by yourself
There's no one here can go there with you
You gotta go there by yourself

If you cannot sing like angels
If you cannot preach like Paul
You can tell the love of Jesus
You can tell he died for all

You gotta walk that lonesome valley
You gotta go there by yourself
There's no one here can go there with you
You gotta go there by yourself
