Lyrics Richard Smallwood – Oh Lord, Stand By Me
Text:
Verse 1:
There are times we stand alone,
although we’ve done no wrong;
oh Lord (oh Lord),
stand by me (stand by me).
There are times we stand to test,
even when we’ve done our best;
oh Lord (oh Lord),
oh Lord (oh Lord),
stand by me (stand by me).
Verse 2:
If you don’t know the Lord
in the pardon of your sins;
oh Lord (oh Lord),
oh Lord (oh Lord),
stand by me (stand by me).
Just open up your heart
and let Jesus walk on in;
oh Lord (oh Lord),
oh Lord (oh Lord),
stand by me (stand by me).
Chorus:
Oh Lord, stand by me,
while I walk this lonesome road.
Oh lord stand by me,
help me bear this heavy load.
If I stumble Lord, pick me up,
help me drink this bitter cup;
oh Lord (oh Lord),
stand by me (stand by me).
Verse 3:
When everything goes wrong,
and there’s trouble all in your home;
oh Lord (oh Lord),
oh Lord (oh Lord),
stand by me (stand by me).
I don’t worry and I don’t fret,
’cause God Almighty never failed me yet;
oh Lord (oh Lord),
oh Lord (oh Lord),
stand by me (stand by me).
Chorus
Vamp:
Oh Lord, oh Lord,
oh Lord, oh Lord.
Ending:
oh Lord (oh Lord),
oh Lord (oh Lord),
stand by me (stand by me).
