The Oak Ridge Boys
Lord Stay Near To Me
Sometimes I search and never seem to find
A place for peace within my tangled mind
Trials take hold and will not set me free
Then my troubled soul cries out, Lord stay near to me

Stay near to me Lord when friends turn me away
When the darkness deepens shadows lead astray
I'll not fear tomorrow for my prayer shall be
Through smiles and sorrow, Lord stay near to me

When I have drawn my final fleeting breath
When at last these eyes have closed in death
And as I walk across that troubled sea
Through the darkest hours, Lord stay near to me
