Author: Charles Albert Tindley (1851-1933) Hymnal: Hymns of Glory, Songs of Praise #570 (2008) Meter: 8.3.8.3.7.7.8.3 Lyrics: 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 pounding me
like a ship upon the sea,
Lord, who rules the wind and water, stand by me.
2 In the midst of tribulation, stand by me;
in the midst of tribulation, stand by me.
When the hosts of hell assail,
and my strength begins to fail,
Lord, who never lost a battle, stand by me.
3 In the midst of faults and failures, stand by me;
in the midst of faults and failures, stand by me.
When I've done the best I can,
and my friends misunderstand,
Lord, who knowest all about me, stand by me.
4 In the midst of persecution, stand by me;
in the midst of persecution, stand by me.
When my foes in war array
undertake to stop my way,
Lord, who saved Paul and Silas, stand by me.
5 When I’m growing old and feeble, stand by me;
when I’m growing old and feeble, stand by me;
when my life becomes a burden
and I’m nearing chilly Jordan,
Lord, the Lily of the Valley, stand by me. Topics: Our Response to God in devotion; The Activity of God God in human expereince; Conflict; Despair and Trouble; Jesus Names and images for; Stages of Life Scripture: Acts 16:16-34 Languages: English Tune Title: STAND BY ME
