Be With Me

Refrain:

Be with me, Lord, when I am in trouble.

Be with me, Lord, I pray.

1. You who dwell in the shelter of the Lord, most high,

Who abide in the shadow of our God.

Say to the Lord: " My refuge and fortress,

The God in whom I trust." Refrain.

2. No evil shall befall you, no pain come near,

For his angels stand close by your side,

Guarding you always and bearing you gently.

Watching over your life. Refrain

3. Those who cling to the Lord live secure in his love,

Lifted high those who trust in his name.

Call on the Lord, He will never forsake you.

He will bring you salvation and joy. Refrain.

At Evening

1. Now it is evening, lights of the city.

Bid us remember, Christ is our Light.

Many are lonely, who will be neighbor?

Where there is caring; Christ is our Light.

2. Now it is evening, little ones sleeping.

Bid us remember, Christ is our Peace.

Some are neglected, who will be neighbor?

Where there is caring, Christ is our Peace.

3. Now it is evening, food on the table.

Bid us remember, Christ is our Life.

Many are hungry, who will be neighbor?

Where there is caring Christ is our Life.

4. Now it is evening, here in our meeting.

May us remember, Christ is our Friend.

Some may be strangers, who will be neighbor?

Where there's a welcome, Christ is our Friend.
