Sit With Me Lord

作词 : Arthur Hayes
作曲 : Arthur Hayes
Lord, please sit close, the night is loud
The rain falls hard beneath the cloud
I try to keep my head up high
While storms are breaking in my sky
There's mud and smoke upon my coat
The truth is stuck inside my throat
I have no holy song to share
Just sit with me and pull a chair
Just sit with me, Lord, let me feel your presence near
I am running thin and the darkness brings me fear
I'd been losing sleep and fading
If I cannot hold my ground
Let me lean upon your shoulder 'til the morning light is found
I know my sins by their first name
They shadow me in quiet shame
My faith is like a half-burned match
A little warmth but fading fast
I don't need answers dressed in gold
Just mercy with its sleeves rolled low
I have no holy song to share
Just sit with me and pull a chair
Just sit with me, Lord, let me feel your presence near
I am running thin and the darkness brings me fear
I'd been losing sleep and fading
If I cannot hold my ground
Let me lean upon your shoulder 'til the morning light is found
Hey!
Oh!
I know dawn won't mend it all
Shadows wait upon the wall
But if you stay in this room
Maybe hope will start to bloom
Just sit with me, Lord
Let me feel your presence near
I am running thin
And the darkness brings me fear
I'd been losing sleep and fading
If I cannot hold my ground
I'm not healed but I am standing 'til the morning light is found
