It’s an Unfriendly World Songtext
von The Del McCoury Band

Lord, I sometimes feel like a stranger here
As I travel down life′s road
And nobody knows the sorrow I bear
Or how heavy, heavy my load

But in you, dear Lord, I have a precious friend
And my faith looks up to Thee
Let me rise and go, for this dreary world below
Is an unfriendly world to me

Here I wonder, like a beggar
Through the heat and through the cold
And my burden get so heavy
Lord, my sorrows, they are untold

But to Jesus, I am clinging
Let me hide, dear Lord, in Thee
For this old world and its sorrow
It's an unfriendly world to me


Keep me, Lord, I pray, and let your spirit guide
While I find my homeward way
As I tread life′s valley, be my shining light
Be my shepherd, Lord, be my stay

Let me ever lean upon your guiding arm
'Til the lights, lights at home I see
Lord, I need your light for this world of sin and night
It's an unfriendly world to me

Here I wonder, like a beggar
Through the heat and through the cold
And my burden get so heavy
Lord, my sorrows, they are untold

But to Jesus, I am clinging
Let me hide, dear Lord, in Thee
For this old world with its sorrow
It′s an unfriendly world to me

It′s an unfriendly world to me
