I Couldn't Hear Nobody Pray

([IN DE VALLEY, COULDN'T HEAR NOBODY PRAY])

Refrain:
O, I couldn’t hear nobody pray,
O Lord, I couldn’t hear nobody pray.
O, way down yonder by myself,
And I couldn’t hear nobody pray.

In de valley,
Couldn’t hear nobody pray,
On ma knees,
Couldn’t hear nobody pray,
Wid ma burden,
Couldn’t hear nobody pray,
An’ ma Savior.
Couldn’t hear nobody pray,
O ma Lord,

Refrain:
O, I couldn’t hear nobody pray,
O Lord, I couldn’t hear nobody pray.
O, way down yonder by myself,
And I couldn’t hear nobody pray.

Chilly waters,
Couldn’t hear nobody pray,
In de Jerden,
Couldn’t hear nobody pray,
Crossin’ over,
Couldn’t hear nobody pray,
Into Canaan.
Couldn’t hear nobody pray,

Refrain:
O, I couldn’t hear nobody pray,
O Lord, I couldn’t hear nobody pray.
O, way down yonder by myself,
And I couldn’t hear nobody pray.

Hallelujah!
Couldn’t hear nobody pray,
Troubles over
Couldn’t hear nobody pray,
In de kingdom,
Couldn’t hear nobody pray,
Wid my Jesus.
Couldn’t hear nobody pray,

Refrain:
O, I couldn’t hear nobody pray,
O Lord, I couldn’t hear nobody pray.
O, way down yonder by myself,
And I couldn’t hear nobody pray.
