Author: James B. Coats, 1901-1961 Hymnal: One Lord, One Faith, One Baptism #543 (2018) Meter: 10.8.10.8 with refrain First Line: Living below in this old sinful world Lyrics: 1 Living below in this old sinful world,
Hardly a comfort can afford;
Striving alone to face temptation sore,
Where could I go but to the Lord?
Refrain:
Where could I go? Oh, where could I go
Seeking a refuge for my soul?
Needing a friend to save me in the end,
Where could I go but to the Lord?
2 Neighbors are kind, I love them ev’ry one,
We get along in sweet accord;
But when my soul needs manna from above,
Where could I go but to the Lord? [Refrain]
3 Life here is grand with friends I love so dear,
Comfort I get from God’s own word;
Yet when I face the chilling hand of death,
Where could I go but to the Lord? [Refrain] Topics: The Gospel in the Christian Life Healing and Comfort; Comfort; Jesus Christ Refuge Languages: English Tune Title: WHERE COULD I GO
