Gone away, gone away
All the troubles in my soul have gone away
I was lost out in the night, but praise God I saw the light
And the troubles in my soul have gone away

I was down, I was discouraged
Every dream I ever had was gone
But through Him I found the courage
And now I've got the strength I need to carry on

Gone away, gone away
All the troubles in my soul have gone away
I was lost out in the night, but praise God I saw the light
And the troubles in my soul have gone away

You know that life, it don't come easy
And sometimes you feel like givin' in
But there's a better day a-coming
If you get down on your knees and talk to Him

Gone away, gone away
All the troubles in my soul have gone away
I was lost out in the night, but praise God I saw the light
And the troubles in my soul have gone away

When the day is dark and dreary
And it seems it's more than you can bear
Just remember there is an answer
All you have to do is raise your voice in prayer

Gone away, gone away
All the troubles in my soul have gone away
I was lost out in the night, but praise God I saw the light
And the troubles in my soul have gone away

Gone away, all the troubles in my soul have gone away
I was lost out in the night, but praise God I saw the light
And the troubles in my soul have gone away

And the troubles in my soul have gone away
