490. If I Couldn't Say a Word

1 If I couldn't say a word,
if I couldn't say a word,
if I couldn't say a word,
I'd just wave my hand.

2 If the Lord don't help me,
if the Lord don't help me,
if the Lord don't help me,
I won't be able to stand.

3 What do you think about Jesus,
what do you think about Jesus,
what do you think about Jesus,
He's a friend of mine.
