Lyrics: Walter Hawkins. Try Christ.

Solo verse
Tried in every way
Hope to see the day
All the pain will be gone
Problems linger on
and it seems all hope is gone
and you feel all alone

Trying to win the fight
You tossed all night
Looking for what's right
The more you try
To do what's right
You can't see the light

What will you do to find the way out
Try Christ

Choir: Oh
Solo: Friends come and go
Choir: Oh
Solo: Like you know
Choir: That's just how they be
Solo: They be they be
Choir: Oh
solo: They say to you
Choir: Oh
solo: I will I will come through
Choir: But when the day is through
Solo: The day is through, you run to him
Choir: You run to him
Solo: This so
Choir: This friend
Solo: called friend
Choir: Oh
Solo: Who said
Choir: oh
Solo: He would come through, oh but he's not there
Tenor: But he's not there
Solo: No one seems to care
Tenor: No one seems to care
Solo: Now what will you do, what will you do oh lord

2nd verse
Choir: The weight is great
Solo: The weight is great
Choir: Don't hesitate
Solo: Why hesitate, there's hope for your life
try christ, it will be better, try christ he'll make it better, try christ
(repeat 2nd verse)

Choir: Try christ, he'll make it better (Repeat 5x)

Solo: Try christ, try christ
