Be With Me Jesus Songtext
von Al Green

Oh Lord, the time is growing nigh
When I must breathe my last breath inside
And Lord, in my dying hour
Stay with me, Lord, oh

Oh Lord, my friends have gathered ′round
They're watching me slowly, my soul is sinking down
And Lord, in my dying hour
Stay with me, Lord, oh

Now Lord, now Jesus, now Jesus time has come
When I must leave my earthly home
Friends standing around
Tears in their eyes


Oh Lord, I know You′ll stand by me
Whenever I'm in trouble, when I'm in misery
And oh, in my trying hour, oh
Stay with me, Lord, come on

Now Lord, now Jesus, now Jesus, now Jesus
I said farewell to my friends down here
I know there others waitin′ for me up there
Whoa Lord, trying hour, stay with me Lord, come on Lord

Whoa Lord, stay with me Jesus, stay with me Jesus
Stay with me Lord, say no matter what
Standing by your word, down on my knees
Father, hear me please

I′ll go through myself, and I shall not want
Taking me to lie down, taking me to green pastures
Whoa Lord, I'm not worried, I′m not worried
I'm not worried, I′m not afraid


I'm not afraid, and I walk through the valley
Of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil
Thou are with me, yes thou around
And that′s that, they'll come for me
