I'm in despair, I cannot win I have been to hell and back again My doctor knows, he comes and goes For I'm at Your door, I'm knee up in the storm
My sister says that I should rest She's been there too and she knows best A spirit's close, I love the most The Father, Son and Holy Ghost
Nothing to fear when He draws near As the twilight falls to wipe away your tears When he laid me down, when he brought me around My baby's prayer, the sweetest sound
I'm in despair, I cannot win I've been to hell and back again And back again, and back again And back again, come back again
