lyrics

oh i will be with you again and take you from this harm
oh i will help make amens with the needles in your arm
oh i will be by your side

i'll take you this from this lonesome path of hunger pain and strife
and lead you to the other side and show you better life
oh i will be by your side

oh i will wash your knotted hair and and wipe your dirty chin
i will feed you with my open hands and absolve you of your sin
oh i will be by your side

oh i'll be there to calm you down and hold you when you shake
i will be the one to coddle you with my love you can take
oh i will be by your side

oh i'll protect our love my dear and watch your every move
i will be along to hunt you down when you have been untrue
oh i will be by your side

oh i will hold your body down with my hands upon your throat
i will ease your pain and wipe your tears and kiss you as you choke
oh i will be by your side

oh i will say my first goodbye in the time of your last breath
and hand you off to Jesus Christ in the moments of you death
oh i will be by your side

oh i will be with you again on the greener side of noon
so keep your chin up hold it hight cuz i will be there soon
oh i will be by your side
oh i will be by your side
