When burdens seem to overcome there's a higher power

Who's able and refusses none there's a higher power

Then why ask men to help you through there's a higher power

They're helpless pilgrims just like you there's a higher power

So sing and shout walk and talk there's a higher power

Lay down your soul let Jesus fall there's a higher power

Amen amen there's a higher power amen amen there's a higher power



(Oh go tell people lost in sin there's a higher power

They need not fear the works of men there's a higher power

Believe in him to rest on high there's a higher power

Unless they do they'll surely die there's a higher power)

So sing and shout...

So sing and shout...
