[Verse 1:]
Troubles come and troubles go,
Long nights, me pacing the floor.
When will these problems ever end,
Where can I find a friend;
For Jesus Christ will abide, He's on Your side.
[Verse 2:]
Sometimes dark clouds fill my sky,
People don't always know why.
That's when I hear down in my heart,

Jesus, my Lord won't depart,
For He's always been my guide, He's on my side.
[Chorus:]
He's on your side,
He will be with you in trouble,
All your prayers He will not deny.
He will hear your faintest cry.
He's on your side.
[Bridge:]
Love stays, it will never go away;
He'll stay, nobody but Jesus, I know.
