1 I will trust in the Lord,
I will trust in the Lord,
I will trust in the Lord till I die.
I will trust in the Lord,
I will trust in the Lord,
I will trust in the Lord till I die.

2 I'm gonna treat ev'rybody right,
I'm gonna treat ev'rybody right,
I'm gonna treat ev'rybody right till I die.
I'm gonna treat ev'rybody right,
I'm gonna treat ev'rybody right,
I'm gonna treat ev'rybody right till I die.

3 I'm gonna stay on the battlefield,
I'm gonna stay on the battlefield,
I'm gonna stay on the battlefield till I die.
I'm gonna stay on the battlefield,
I'm gonna stay on the battlefield,
I'm gonna stay on on the battlefield till I die.

[Alternate lyrics:]
Father, I stretch my hands to thee;
No other help I know.
If thou withdraw thyself from me,
O whither shall I go?

4 I'm gonna stay on bended knee,
I'm gonna stay on bended knee,
I'm gonna stay on bended knee till I die.
I'm gonna stay on bended knee,
I'm gonna stay on bended knee,
I'm gonna stay on bended knee till I die.
