Stand By Me My Lord

Stand by me my Lord
                                               In this age of ferment
                                               Stand by me my Lord
                                              In your sylvan garment

                                      In this night, let your song be sung
                                     Let the lambent moon be your eyes
                                      Let the flower on your crest belong
                                            To my soul's wisp of smiles

                                              Stand by me my Lord
                                             With an apparel of light
                                              Stand by me my Lord
                                            Be the center of my sight 

                             Stand by me my Lord and bless me with valor
                   Fill my veins with a surge of blood new and fresh-no pallor
