The composer and author are unknown, but it is probably from Afro-American traditions.
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)
