Lord Jesus

Don Stephens

Rhymed
I love you Lord Jesus
please hold me real tight,
the Devil’s out walking
out walking tonight

Oh I love you Lord Jesus
take hold of my hand
I’m starting to stumble
don’t think I can stand

I love you Lord Jesus
please sit by my side
I can’t walk anymore
you know that I’ve tried

I love you Lord Jesus
please lie by my side
I’m weary so weary
and afraid I might die
