Stand By Me Lyrics


When I'm crossing Jordan river, stand by me
She's a breast, to be my pillow, stand by me
Now the water is chilly and cold, the love of Jesus is in my soul
Like a flash, thunder rolls, stand by meThrough hard tries and tribulations, stand by me
The midst of false accutrations stand by me
When trouble like a gloomy cloud, gathers thick and thunder loud
Now who never knows the battle, stand by meWhen the devil tries to take me, stand by me
And my earthly friends forsake me, stand by me
And I'm travelling through the flame, trying to do the best that I can
Although my friends misunderstand, stand by me
In travelling through this world of troubles, stand by me
When we must close our books and bibles, stand by me
Now we come in down to die, Jesus take me home on High
Just to reign with you above the sky, stand by me
