It's me, it's me, O Lord,

standing in the need of prayer.
Not my brother, not my sister, but it's me, O Lord,
standing in the need of prayer. [Refrain]

Not the preacher, not the deacon, but it's me, O Lord,
standing in the need of prayer. [Refrain]

standing in the need of prayer.
Not my father, not my mother, but it's me, O Lord,
