    hardly a comfort can afford.

Where could I go, oh, where could I go

   C                                   G       - D - G - G7

seeking a refuge for my soul ?

    comfort I get from God's own word.

    Yet when I face the chilling hand of death, 

                                        C      F       G                    C       - F - C - G

    won’t you tell me ! Where could I go but to the Lord ?
