Oh mother, where can I go With my pain oh, and my sorrow And sister, where can I turn With my head hung down so low And brother, who will deliver me From the worries of tommorow
Bring your weary soul to the altar Close your eyes and bend your knees Lay your worries and your burdens down
Oh sons and daughters, who wil dry Dry your cryin' eyes Believers, tell me who will believe When this town oughta say goodbye
Bring your weary soul to the altar Close your eyes and bend your knees Lay your worries and your burden down
May your words be few Oh, let the spirit carry you And the angels will make that joyful sound
Bring your weary soul to the water Let the holy water set you free Lay your trials and your tribulations At his feet May your words be few Oh, let the spirit carry you And the face of a Jesus You will see it now Oh---yea---oh
