Seen a lot of trouble
At my door
I've never known a day when
I ain't been poor
But I'm gonna live
With jesus in the end

Hard times
Is all I see
I've lost the ones
That are dear to me
But I'm gonna live
With jesus in the end

(chorus)

I'm gonna live
I'm gonna live
I'm gonna live
I'm gonna live
I'm gonna live
With jesus in the end

These poor bones
Are tired and old
Meeting my savior
Redeem my soul
¡®cause I'm gonna live
With jesus

I'm gonna live
I'm gonna live
With jesus
I'm gonna live
I'm gonna live
With jesus in the end
