Stand Beside Me lyrics

He has been living through the pages of our time Known as a true man Pure and sublime Comes from the earth And out of the skies From the four corners of the compass And into our lives He is followed He who is true To what there is to be believed in To the spirit of you Comes from the day And out of the night It's in all things natural It's in all things right Oh Sometimes it's just not that easy Oh Sometimes I go to call you, call you Stand beside me God Stand beside me Stand before me And behind me So I can follow in love And it all sails so smoothly with a prayer at each hand We all carry our stones, our good books On the Holy ground, we stand True to the day, true to the night It's got to be natural, it's got to be right Oh Sometimes it's still not that easy No Sometimes I'm not the man I think I am Feel I am Hope I am Know I am Stand beside me Stand beside me Stand before me And behind me So I can be true, so I can be true to my word Stand beside me Stand beside me Stand before me Stand beside me
