Lyrics

Nobody knows the trouble that I've seen

Nobody is aware of the difficulties and challenges I've experienced

Nobody knows my sorrow

No one understands the depth of my sorrow

Nobody knows the trouble that I've seen

Reiteration of the unknown troubles faced

Glory hallelujah

An expression of praise or joy, contrasting with the preceding lines


Nobody knows the trouble that I've seen

Continued emphasis on the undisclosed hardships

Nobody knows my, my sorrow

No one comprehends the magnitude of my personal sorrow

Nobody knows the trouble that I've seen

Reiteration of the theme of hidden troubles

Glory hall, glory hallelujah

Praising with "Glory hallelujah" despite the challenges


Sometimes I'm up and sometimes I'm down

Describing the fluctuating nature of life's experiences

Oh, yes Lord

An acknowledgment of a higher power (Lord) in times of ups and downs

You know sometimes almost to the ground

Expressing the potential of being close to failure

Oh, oh yes Lord

A reaffirmation of dependence on the Lord in challenging times


Still, nobody knows the trouble that I've seen

Repeating the theme of undisclosed troubles despite external appearances

Nobody, nobody knows my, my sorrow

Emphasizing the solitude of personal sorrow

Nobody knows the trouble that I've seen

Reiteration of the unknown struggles faced by the individual

Glory hallelujah

Expressing praise and joy despite the hidden troubles


If you get there before I do

Addressing the possibility of reaching a destination, adding a hopeful tone

Oh, oh yes Lord

A continuation of acknowledging the Lord in the journey

Don't forget to tell all my friends I'm comin' too

Instructing to inform friends about the impending arrival

Whoa, oh yes Lord

Reaffirming the connection with the Lord in the message to friends


Still, nobody knows the trouble that I've seen

Restating the theme of undisclosed troubles despite appearances

Nobody knows my sorrow

No one fully comprehends the depth of my personal sorrow

Nobody knows the trouble that I've seen

Reiteration of the unknown struggles faced by the individual

Glory hall, hallelujah

Ending with praise and joy, maintaining a positive outlook
