Oh, Father You've been my friend
Now that I'm in trouble
Stand by me to the end, oh, oh
I want You to stand by, stand by
Well, all of my money and my friends are gone
God, I'm in a mean world
And I'm so all alone, oh, oh
I need You Jesus, stand by, stand by
Well, they tell me that
Samson killed in ancient times
I know that You helped
Him kill 10,000 Philistines, oh
Whoa I need You, stand by, stand by
Here's another thing
They tell me that they put Daniel
Down in the lion's den
I know You went down there, Father
You feed Daniel once again
That's why I said
Do me like You did Daniel
And stand by, stand by
Well, sometimes I feel like
The weight of the world is on my shoulders
And it's all in vain
When I begin to feel weak along the way
You come and You give me strength again
The Hebrew children have been in fire
Ten times hotter that it ought to be
Just like You delivered them, Father
I know You can deliver me, oh Lord
I'm calling You Jesus, stand by, stand by
When I'm sick, Father, stand by
When they doctor walk away from my bedside
Stand by me father
When it seem like I don't have a friend
I wonder would You be my friend
Stand closer, stand by
Sam Cooke (1931-1964) was a legendary American singer, songwriter, and record producer, considered one of the pioneers of soul music. Born in Clarksdale, Mississippi, Cooke began his musical career singing gospel in his local church. In 1957, he signed with Saratoga Records, releasing hits like "You Send Me" which made him a pop star. Cooke then founded his own record label, The Soul Stirrers, continuing to record highly successful gospel songs. Throughout the 1960s, Cooke established himself as one of the greatest soul artists with albums like "Ain't That Good News" and "Live at the Harlem Square Club", characterized by captivating melodies and deeply emotional lyrics. His rich and powerful vocal style, his musical sensitivity, and his songs that addressed social issues such as racial equality made him a cultural icon of great significance. Cooke was assassinated in 1964 at the age of 33, leaving an unfillable void in American music.
