Frankie Laine - The Lord Don't Treat His Chillun That Way

When you are weary and filled with despair
Like mother hubbard your cupboard is bare
Sister don't be grievin
Just you keep believin
The lord don't treat his chillun that way

When old man trouble is causing you pain
Remember praying was never in vain
Brother don't be frettin and don't be forgettin
The lord don't treat his chillun that way

What's the difference if your bluebirds been delayed
What's the difference if he's spoiled each plan you've made
Through the clouds he'll come back to yah
Singing halleujah

And just as long as the rivers will roll
And just as long as there's love in your soul
Satan will be grievin
If you keep believin
The lord don't treat his chillun that way

Backing
What's the difference if your bluebirds been delayed
What's the difference if he's spoiled each plan you've made

Through the clouds he'll come back to yah
Singing halleujah
And just as long as there's rivers to roll
And just as long as there's love in your soul
Satan will be grievin
If you keep believin
The lord don't treat his chillun that way
You gotta keep believin the lord don't treat his chillun that way
