Joseph took his wife and her child
To escape the rage of a deadly
There along the banks of the Nile
Jesus listened to the song
My deliverer is standing by
My deliverer is standing by
Through a dry and thirsty land,
water from the cannon hides
Pours itself out of lakes
There in the Sahara winds,
Jesus heard the whole world cry
For the healing that would flow
My Deliverer is standing by
My Deliverer is standing by
He will never break His promise
He has written it upon the skies
My Deliverer is standing by
My Deliverer is standing by
My Deliverer is standing by
I will never doubt His promise,
My Deliverer is standing by
My Deliverer is standing by.
My Deliverer is standing by.
He will never break His promise,
Though the stars should break,
My Deliverer is standing by
My Deliverer is standing by
My Deliverer is standing by
My Deliverer is standing by
My Deliverer is standing by
My Deliverer is standing by
