Stand Beside Me Lyrics - Singles - Hothouse Flowers

He has been living through the pages of our time 

Known as a true man, pure and sublime 

Comes from the earth and out of the skies 

From the four corners of the compass and into our lives 

He is followed, he who is true 

To what there is to be believed in, to the spirit of you 

Comes from the day and out of the night 

It's in all things natural, it's in all things right 

Oh sometimes, it's just not that easy 

Oh sometimes, I got to call you, call you 

Stand beside me, God, stand beside me 

Stand before me and behind me 

So I can follow in love 

And it all sails so smoothly with a prayer at each hand 

We all carry our stones, our good books 

On the Holy ground, we stand true to the day, true to the night 

It's got to be natural, it's got to be right 

Oh sometimes, it's still not that easy 

No, sometimes, I'm not the man I think I am 

Feel I am, hope I am, know I am 

Stand beside me, stand beside me 

Stand before me and behind me 

So I can be true, so I can be true to my word 

Stand beside me, stand beside me 

Stand before me, stand beside me
