G
I see Christian pilgrims so redeemed from sin
D7 C G
Called out of darkness a new life to begin
Were you ever in the valley when the way is dark and dim
D7 C G
Did you ever drink the cup of loneliness with Him
Did you ever have them laugh at you and say it was a fake
D7 C G
The stand that you so boldly for the Lord did take
Did they ever mock at you and laugh in ways quite grim
D7 C G
Did you ever drink the cup of loneliness with Him
Did you ever try to preach then hold fast and pray
D7 C G
And even when you did it there did not seem a way
And you lost all courage then lost all your vim
D7 C G
Did you ever drink the cup of loneliness with Him
Oh my friends 'tis bitter sweet while here on earthly sod
D7 C G
To follow in the footsteps that our dear Savior trod
To suffer with the Savior and when the way is dark and dim
D7 C G
To drink of the bitter cup of loneliness with Him
