G
I see Christian pilgrims so redeemed from sin
D7CG
Called out of darkness a new life to begin
Were you ever in the valley when the way is dark and dim
D7CG
Did you ever drink the cup of loneliness with Him
Did you ever have them laugh at you and say it was a fake
D7CG
The stand that you so boldly for the Lord did take
Did they ever mock at you and laugh in ways quite grim
D7CG
Did you ever drink the cup of loneliness with Him
Did you ever try to preach then hold fast and pray
D7CG
And even when you did it there did not seem a way
And you lost all courage then lost all your vim
D7CG
Did you ever drink the cup of loneliness with Him
Oh my friends 'tis bitter sweet while here on earthly sod
D7CG
To follow in the footsteps that our dear Savior trod
To suffer with the Savior and when the way is dark and dim
D7CG
To drink of the bitter cup of loneliness with Him
