[Verse 1]
When you have trouble, don't cry
Just remember that God is standing by
Thank you, Lord
When you have heartaches
Don't cry, no, no, no, no, no
Don't worry, don't be discouraged
Don't cry, yeah
And sometime I have to say

[Chorus]
Oh, I'll be standing by
(That's what He told me, yeah)
So, I say there's no need to cry
Thank you Lord, yeah
Oh, I'll be standing by
(I'm gonna be standing, standing by, yeah)
So you see that there's no, no need to cry, yeah, yeah

[Verse 2]
I'd like to say one more thing
When you have heartaches you wonder why, yeah, yeah
But just remember, I want you to remember He's standing by
And you don't really have to worry about it, no
When you have trouble please
Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry, oh, no, no, no
Don't worry, don't ever be discouraged
I want you to know you don't have to cry
And sometimes when your burdens get you down
[Chorus]
Oh, I'll be standing by
(I'm gonna be standing by, thank you Lord, I thank you for seeing me)
So I get and no need, no need to cry
But oh, oh, I'll be standing by
(I'm gonna be standing by, thank you father, yeah, yeah)
So don't you worry and don't cry, yeah, don't cry, don't cry

[Outro]
No, don't cry
No, don't cry
No, don't cry
