Stand By the River
by Karen Peck

Album: How You Walk The Miles

The road's been long, I'm a little bit weary
A lot of miles behind me, but home's a lot nearer
I've got one more crossing, it's a long way over
Won't You stand by the river and wait for me

Why don't You stand by the river, Lord
And hold my trembling hand
Cradle me, sweet Jesus
From the cold dark sinking sand
This is one trip I can't take alone
I'm kinda anxious to get on home, so
Stand by the river, wait for me

He paved a road through the hills and the valleys
In the middle of the desert, He placed a fountain
Stand by me, Jesus, through the cold deep water
Won't You stand by the river and wait for me

Why don't You stand by the river, Lord
And hold my trembling hand
Cradle me, sweet Jesus
From the cold dark sinking sand
This is one trip I can't take alone
I'm kinda anxious to get on home, so
Stand by the river, wait for me

Stand by the river, Lord
(Stand by the river)
And hold my trembling hand
Cradle me, sweet Jesus
(Cradle me, sweet Jesus)
From the cold dark sinking sand
(Cold dark sinking)
This is one trip I can't take alone
I'm kinda anxious to get on home, so
Stand by the river, wait for me
Stand by the river, wait for me

Stand by the river, stand by the river
Stand by the river and wait for me
Stand by the river, stand by the river
Stand by the river and wait for me
