Stay Beside Me

Acoustic worship ballad with a gentle progressive-rock arc, fingerpicked steel-string guitar opening, warm strummed rhythm entering gradually, rounded bass, restrained electric-guitar answers and a lyrical lead solo late in the arrangement, Intimate female lead vocal with measured phrasing and a tender, reverent delivery; build from close and sparse to a broad, emotionally lifted final chorus, then settle into a soft guitar outro, Clear natural mix, warm room ambience, vocals forward

[Verse 1] You meet me in the quiet of the day When all my careful words have gone away You know the weight I never learned to name And call me gently all the same [Chorus] Jesus, stay beside me here Steady when the road is unclear Every breath, each step I take I place within Your hands today [Verse 2] The morning finds the dishes by the sink A half-read page, the tea gone cold to drink Still in these ordinary hours I find the shelter of Your power [Chorus] Jesus, stay beside me here Steady when the road is unclear Every breath, each step I take I place within Your hands today [Bridge] When my courage thins, You remain When I lose the words, You know my name Through the waiting, through the years You are faithful, You are near [Final Chorus] Jesus, stay beside me here Steady when the road is unclear Every breath, each step I take I place within Your hands today I place within Your hands today [Outro] You are near You are near
