Shall I Ever Be The One?

Good Lord, shall I ever be the one?

Good Lord, shall I ever be the one?

Good Lord, shall I ever be the one

To get over in the Promised Land?

I need Thee, blessed Jesus,

For I am very poor,

A stranger and a pilgrim

I have no earthly store.

Good Lord, shall I ever be the one?

Good Lord, shall I ever be the one?

Good Lord shall I ever be the one

To get over in the Promised Land?

I need the love of Jesus,

To cheer me on my way,

To guide my doubting footsteps,

To be my strength and stay.
