It's All Right
The George-Edwards Group Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Long as I've got my Lord beside me, well, it's all right
Long as I've got his hand to hold, long as he's a watchin' over mysoul
Long as everything's in his control, well, it's all right.
Moses said, it's all right
When the chariots of Pharoah followed them in their flight
While the Thebes devided in two Moses and the children walk right through
Well it's all right, it's all right
Long as I've got my Lord beside me, well, it's all right
Long as I've got his hand to hold, long as he's a watchin' over mysoul
Long as everything's in his control, well, it's all right.

Well, David said, it's all right
When the Goliath mocked him then he challenged him to a fight
Little David said a prayer and then slung a little stone and done him in
And the people said amen and praised the almighty's might.
Well it's all right, it's all right...
Long as I've got my Lord beside me, well, it's all right
Long as I've got his hand to hold, long as he's a watchin' over mysoul
Long as everything's in his control, well, it's all right.

Daniel said, it's all right
When they threw him in the lion's den that awful night
While the hungry lion's walked about Daniel said Lord please help me out
And the Lord has shut the lion's mouth and he shut it tight
Well, it's all right, yeah, it's all right
Long as I've got my Lord beside me, well, it's all right
Long as I've got his hand to hold, long as he's a watchin' over mysoul
Long as everything's in his control, well, it's all right.
(It's all right, it's all right, it's all right...)
