LYRICS
(Rev. Timothy Wright, 1989)

You’ve been running
Running for a long time
Your time is winding up,
Better make up your mind.
It’s getting late in the evening.
The sun is going down.
You better get right, get right while
You may be found.
I wanna know

Where do you stand?
Who’s on the Lord’s side?
Where do you stand?
Who’s on the Lord’s side?
Where do you stand?
Who’s on the Lord’s side?
I’m on...the Lord’s...side!
I’m on...the Lord’s...side!

Lead:
You gotta work, gotta work, work while it’s day.
‘Cause the night is coming, and you can’t find your way.
O sinner! I wonder, what will you do.
You gotta choose this day
‘Cause tomorrow’s not promised to you.
I wanna know

Where do you stand?
Who’s on the Lord’s side?
Where do you stand?
Who’s on the Lord’s side?
Where do you stand?
Who’s on the Lord’s side?
I’m on...the Lord’s...side!
I’m on...the Lord’s...side!

Lead:
Get up! If you’re on the Lord’s side.
Get up!
Choir: Get up! If you’re on the Lord’s side.
Lead: Get on up!
Choir: Get up! If you’re on the Lord’s side.
Lead: Get on up!
Choir: Get up! If you’re on the Lord’s side.
Lead: Get on up!
Choir: Get up! If you’re on the Lord’s side.
(choir continue)

Lead [ad. lib].
You stand up! You stand up!
Get on, Get on up! Get on, Get on up!
Get up! If you’re on the Lord’s side.
Ge-ge-ge-ge-ge-ge-ge get on up,
If you’re on the Lord’s side.
Oh what about you, you, if
you’re on the Lord’s side.
Oh what about you, you, if
you’re on the Lord’s side.

Who’s on the Lord’s side?
Aren’t you on the Lord’s side.
Geeeet on up if you’re on the Lord’s side.
Ge-ge-ge-ge-ge-ge-ge get on up,
if you’re on the Lord’s side.
Don’t you love the Lord?
Don’t you love the Lord?
Has He, Has He been good to you?
Hasn’t He been good to you?
Didn’t He bring you out?
Oh, without a shadow of a doubt?
Oh, didn’t He make a way through,
Throughout every day?
Oh, what’s the Lord done for you?
Didn’t He bring you through?
Didn’t He, didn’t He bring you out?
Didn’t He bring you out
Without a shadow of a doubt?
Ge-ge-ge-ge-ge-ge-ge get on up,
Ge,ge,ge,ge get on up!
You’ve been down too long,
You’ve been down too long!
Get up, get up from desperation,
Ge-get up, get up from depression.
Get up, get up for victory.

Get up, get up, put your heart at ease!
Hey, hey, hey
(Wait a minute. If you see somebody around you,
Look like they might be down,
You know what I want you to tell ‘em?)
GET UP!
Choir: Get up!
Lead [continue ad lib]
Woke you up this morning,
Started you on your way.
Gave you a brand new dawning,
Gave you a brand new day!
Didn’t God been good
Ga-good-ga-good-ga-good-
Ga-good
Sopranos: GET UP!
Altos: GET UP!
Tenors: GET UP!
All: GET UP!
All: Get up, if you’re on the Lord’s side.
I’m on the Lord’s side!
I’m on the Lord’s side!

FEATURED EXAMPLES
Example #1: Who's on the Lord's Side by Rev. Timothy Wright and the Timothy Wright Concert Choir



Uploaded by robbieatnsudotcom on Nov 30, 2009

Hello everyone and here's another YouTube gospel video. This time, I'm taking us back even further to 1993 with the late great "Godfather of Gospel", the Rev. Timothy D. Wright and the Timothy Wright Concert Choir. The song is the famous "Who's on the Lord's Side?" from the album of the same name. Today, almost 17 years after the debut of the song, there are still many people who sing this in their churches, and all thanks to a wonderful saint of God who showered us with his inspirational music. I do not own this song nor am I seeking monetary gains or publicity. The lyrics are on the video, for everyone to follow along or learn. And BTW, if there is a song that you would like for me to do a video on, let me know. Hope you enjoy. God bless!
