I wonder is there anybody here
Who late at midnight shed right a tear
All because you didn't have no one
To help you along the way?
Oh Lord!
And if there is anyone
Let me tell you what I've done:
I've asked Jesus to be a fence around me
And protect me every day.
I told him:
Jesus be a fence all around me every day.
When I get burdened, Jesus,
I want you to protect me
As I travel on the way. Sometimes it will hurt you to your heart
To see loved ones who depart,
But oh children,
Death is no stranger to anyone.
And oh Lord...
But just as long as you stay in the fold,
You never have to worry
When Death knock on your door.
Just ask Jesus to be a fence around you,
And you never have to worry anymore.
Just bow down!
Jesus be a fence all around me every day
When you get burdened -
Jesus, I want you to protect me
As I travel on the way.
When you get lonely -
Jesus be a fence all around me every day
Jesus, protect me
As I travel on my way.
