Jesus Be A Fence Around Me Lyrics - Joy In My Soul: The Complete Sar Recordings - The Soul Stirrers

I wonder is there anybody here 

Who late at midnight shed right a tear 

All because you didn't have no one 

To help you along the way? 

Oh Lord! 

And if there is anyone 

Let me tell you what I've done: 

I've asked Jesus to be a fence around me 

And protect me every day. 

I told him: 

Jesus be a fence all around me every day. 

When I get burdened, Jesus, 

I want you to protect me 

As I travel on the way. 

Sometimes it will hurt you to your heart 

To see loved ones who depart, 

But oh children, 

Death is no stranger to anyone. 

And oh Lord... 

But just as long as you stay in the fold, 

You never have to worry 

When Death knock on your door. 

Just ask Jesus to be a fence around you, 

And you never have to worry anymore. 

Just bow down! 

Jesus be a fence all around me every day 

When you get burdened - 

Jesus, I want you to protect me 

As I travel on the way. 

When you get lonely - 

Jesus be a fence all around me every day 

Jesus, protect me 

As I travel on my way.
