            F 
He has been living, through the pages of our time, 
Known as a true man, pure and sublime 
              Dm 
Comes from the earth, and out of the skies 
                             F   
From the four corners of the compass, and into our lives 

F 
He is followed, He who is true, 
To what there is to be believed in, To the spirit of you 
               Dm 
Comes from the day and out of the night 
                   F 
It's in all things natural It's in all things right 

    Gm                            F 
Oh sometimes, it's just not that easy 
    Gm        Bb6     Csus4     Gm/C    Csus4 Gm/C 
Oh Sometimes, I go to call you, call you 

      F 
Stand beside me God, Stand beside me 
Dm 
Stand before me, And behind me 
Gm                 F 
So I can follow in love 

F 
And it all sails so smoothly with a prayer at each hand 
We all carry our stones, our good books, On the Holy ground,  
                     Dm 
we stand True to the day, true to the night 
               F 
It's got to be natural, it's got to be right 

   Gm                            F 
Oh Sometimes it's still not that easy

Hope I am Know I am 

F 
Stand beside me, Stand beside me 
Dm 
Stand before me, And behind me 
Gm                                       F 
So I can be true, so I can be true to my word 

Stand beside me
