1. Jesus walked this lonesome valley,
He had to walk it by Himself,
Oh, nobody else could walk it for Him,
He had to walk it by Himself.
2. My father had to walk this lonesome valley,
He had to walk it for himself,
Oh, nobody else could walk it for him,
He had to walk it for himself.
3. We have to walk this lonesome valley,
We have to walk it by ourselves,
Oh, nobody else can walk it for us,
We have to walk it by ourselves.
4. You must go and stand your trial,
You must stand it by yourself,
Oh, nobody else can walk it for you,
You have to stand it by yourself.
Chorus: You’ve gotta walk that lonesome valley,
You gotta walk it by yourself,
Nobody here can walk it for you,
You’ve gotta walk it by yourself.
