21 Aug 11 - 09:37 PM (#3210623) Subject: Lyr Add: YOU'RE WITH US, AIN'T YOU LORD? From: Jim Dixon Copied from http://www.nrvhost.com/hosted/good_home_grown_music/song_catalog/more_home_grown_music/lyrics_youre_with_us_aint_you_lord_joe_isaacs_family.html YOU'RE WITH US, AIN'T YOU LORD? Words and music by Dixie Hall, Tom T. Hall, and Billy Smith. 1: I wake up in the morning, Take the world the way I find it. There ain't much I'm in charge of anyway. There's not much I can do to keep Our mother earth a-turning. All I can do is work and hope and pray. CHORUS: I know that you're with us, ain't you, Lord? Oh, how I need to hear your voice! Lord, give me endurance. I need your reassurance. I know that you're with us, ain't you, Lord? 2: I lay down the morning paper. Once again the world's in trouble, And it seems this time there ain't no place to hide. I reach for my trusty Bible And I see that it's been written: Wars and rumors like you prophesied. CHORUS 3: There's a dreadful situation Here today in our great nation: Our young people on those foreign shores. This prayer goes up for them, But there's a chill of fear within. I reckon you're still with us, ain't you, Lord? CHORUS TAG: I reckon you're still with us, ain't you, Lord? [The web site says this was recorded by the Joe Isaacs Family on Blue Circle Records, BRC-002.] |
