I Guess the Lord Must Be in New York City

I'll say goodbye to all my sorrow

And by tomorrow I'll be on my way

I guess the Lord must be in New York City

And I'm so tired of getting nowhere

Seein' my prayers goin' unanswered

I guess the Lord must be in New York City

Here I am, Lord, knockin' at your back door

Ain't it wonderful to be where I've always wanted to be?

For the first time, I'll breathe free

Here in New York City

I'll say goodbye to all my sorrow

And by tomorrow I'll be on my way

I guess the Lord must be in New York City

And I'm so tired of getting nowhere

And seein' my prayers goin' unanswered

I guess the Lord must be in New York City

Well, here I am, Lord, knockin' at your back door

And ain't it wonderful to be where I've always wanted to be?

For the first time, I'll breathe free

Here in New York City

I'll say goodbye to all my sorrow

And by tomorrow I'll be on my way
