(A.P. Carter)
Hark the voice of Jesus calling
Come and work for him today
The fields are white and the harvest falling
Come and work for him today.
You`ve got to walk that lonesome valley
You`ve got to go there by yourself
There`s no one here can go there with you
You`ve got to go there by yourself.

My mother told me when she was dying
Just before her breath was gone
My darling one puts trust in Jesus
For I`ll leave you here alone.
You`ve got to walk that lonesome valley
You`ve got to go there by yourself
There`s no one here can go there with you
You`ve got to go there by yourself.

Some people say John was a Baptist
Others say he was a Jew
But the Holy Bible tells us
That he was a preacher too.
You`ve got to walk that lonesome valley
You`ve got to go there by yourself
There`s no one here can go there with you
You`ve got to go there by yourself...
