When you hit rock bottom with a heavy load
You might think you're at the end of the road
You need something that will save your soul
There's a place that you can go
Son, when you feel down
I said, "Son, when you feel down"
I said, "Son, when you feel down"
Put your trust in the good Lord, Jesus
He'll take you through the hard times
I said, "Take you through the hard times"
Yes, He'll take you through the hard times
Put your trust in the good Lord, Jesus
The good Lord, Jesus, yeah
Daddy tell your daughters, momma tell your sons
Don't go doing things that I've done
When you're on the wrong end of the smoking gun
There's a place that you can't run
Son, when you feel down
I said, "Son, when you feel down"
I said, "Son, when you feel down"
Put your trust in the good Lord, Jesus
He'll take you through the hard times
I said, "Take you through the hard times"
Yes, He'll take you through the hard times
Put your trust in the good Lord, Jesus
The good Lord, Jesus
Lift your hand up when you feel down
Lift your hand up when you feel down
There's no need to feel so alone, oh
I said, "Son, when you feel down"
I said, "Son, when you feel down"
I said, "Son, when you feel down"
Put your trust in the good Lord, Jesus
Oh, He'll take you through the hard times
I said, "Take you through the hard times"
Yes, He'll take you through the hard times
Put your trust in the good Lord, Jesus
Son, when you feel down
I said, "Son, when you feel down"
I said, "Son, when you feel down"
Put your trust in the good Lord, Jesus
Oh, He'll take you through the hard times
I said, "Take you through the hard times"
Yes, He'll take you through the hard times
Put your trust in the good Lord, Jesus
Good Lord, Jesus, good Lord, Jesus
