Sit With Me
Oak and Gorski Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sometimes my way seems rough and lone
But the road to Heaven is the road to home
My trials here will soon be o'er
I'll see Jesus on the other shore

When at the Jordan I'll have no fear
I have His promise that He'll be near
No more sorrows, no doubts or fear

And He'll abide with me

Dear Jesus, abide with me
As I travel life's rugged seas

And make my life what it ought to be
Dear Jesus, abide with me
