Be With Me Jesus
Oh Lord, the time is growing nigh
When I must breathe my last breath inside
Lord, in my dying hour, stay with me, Lord
Come on..
Oh Lord, my friends have gathered 'round
They're watching me slowly, I'm slowly sinking down
Lord, in my dying hour, stay with me, Lord
Now Father, now Jesus, now Father time have come
When I'm a leave my earthly home
Friends standing around, tear in the eyes
They know that I am about to die
But I'm not worried, I'm not worried, I'm not afraid
I know you do, Jesus, just what You say
Come with me Lord, I'll follow you right
You be with me Father, day and night
I worked hard for you Jesus, sweat on my brow
I said I'm dying, I said I'm dying
I said I'm dying, don't leave me now
Oh Lord, I know you'll stand by me
When I'm in trouble, when I'm in misery
And Lord, in my dying hour, stay with me, Lord
Come on Jesus....
Oh oh Lord, I know You'll stand by Your word
Whenever I've called You, I know You always heard
Lord, in my dying hour, stay with me, Lord
Now Father, fare thee well, fare thee well
Fare thee well to my friends down here
I got loved ones waiting for me up there
Oh Lord, my mother and father too
And all the good friends that I once knew
Lord, in my dying hour, stay with me, Lord
Jesus (be with me Jesus)
Jesus (be with me)
