Stand By Me Lord

Author Dana Redricks
April 9, 2020

When the storms of life are raging
stand by me. When all else around me
fails, stand by me. Hold me in Your 
loving arms, and keep me safe from 
harm. Lord You are my comforter when 
I am weary. When the dark clouds seem 
to hover up above You light my way. You 
help me to make it day by day. When I'm 
lost You show me the way. Lord where 
would I be if it had not been for You. You 
give me hope, and help me through. 
When the storms of life is raging You 
can calm the stormy seas. Thank You 
for standing by me.
