The Lord is near you right by your side
1 The Lord is near you right by your side.
He'll never leave you, He is your Guide.
Through doubt and sadness,
In trials and loneliness,
The Lord is near you, right by your side.
2 The Lord will live in you, right in your heart.
His peace He'll give you, His love impart.
He will cleanse your sin away
He will teach you how to pray
When Jesus lives in you, right in your heart.
3 The Lord will come for you, at that Last Day,
When Heaven will open its shining way.
Will you be ready then?
Will you be trusting Him?
When Jesus comes again, at that Last Day.
Coda
The Lord is near you, right by your side.
