[CHORUS:]  God is standing by  So hush, don't you worry  Don't cry  God is standing by  So hush, don't you worry  Don't cry    [CHORUS]    And when troubles come  Don't cry, no don't cry  When all your dreams  And would be fortunes pass you by  And when there is heartache  So many trials and life's unclear  Just look up toward heaven  There's a God and He's standing near    [CHORUS]    And when there is parting  All your friends and loved ones leave you  And you hurt so bad  You feel you just don't know what to do  And if you're wondering if there's anybody who  Really cares  Let me assure you, that there's a God  And He'll be right there    [CHORUS] (2x)    So hush, don't you worry  Don't cry  Hush
