Kathleen requested this song by Tom Booth. It is in Spirit & Song 1/171. You can also buy it various formats from OCP here.
You can hear Booth’s version here. A church has put their impressive version on Youtube here.
My version doesn’t get all the chord changes in because they won’t fit into BIAB, which is a pity.
Refrain
Be with me, Lord.
Be with me, my Lord.
When I’m in trouble and I don’t know where to go,
be with me, Lord.1. When I’m blind, when I cannot see,
when all life’s trouble sweeps over me.
When I’m in darkness and all I see is me,
be with me, Lord.2. When I refuse to hear your word,
when I hear your voice and do not follow,
when I’m in trouble and I don’t know where to go,
be with me, Lord.
