Representative lyrics

English (Original Language)

1. When the storms of life are raging, stand by me; When the storms of life are raging, stand by me. When the world is tossing me like a ship upon the sea, Thou who rulest wind and water, stand by me.

2. In the midst of faults and failures, stand by me; In the midst of faults and failures, stand by me. When I do the best I can and my friends misunderstand, Thou who knowest all about me, stand by me.

3. In the midst of tribulations, stand by me; In the midst of tribulations, stand by me. When the pow’rs of sin assail and my strength begins to fail, Thou who never lost a battle, stand by me.
