Lyrics

Chorus:
It's me, it's me, oh Lord
Standing in the need of prayer;
It's me, it's me, oh Lord
Standing in the need of prayer.

1 Not my brother, not my sister
But it's me, oh Lord
Standing in the need of prayer.
(repeat)

2 Not my mother, not my father
But it's me, oh Lord
Standing in the need of prayer.
(repeat)

3 Not the stranger or my neighbour
But it's me, oh Lord
Standing in the need of prayer.
(repeat)
