I wrote this song yesterday. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N1jcnGbHSqc Can you help me check the lyric because I'm not English native speaker.Thanks all.

Verse 1 : Hey sister ! Are you worrying something ?Just let God know about that all. Pray with him , He'll never let you down, never leave you alone in this world.

Verse 2 : Hey sister ! Do you feel lonely ? Just let God touch and hold your hands. When your light is almost gone, He'll stand by you and lead you home.

Verse 3 : Hey sister ! Now lift your hands and praise the Lord, almighty Lord. Dry your tears and let him lead your life. He'll never leave you alone in this world.

Chorus : For He's the Lord, the Maker of this world. He'll hold your hands and guide you through the way. He never lets you fall into the trap. He'll give you strength to go on.

* Just let God know ( Verse 1)
* We know You're there, Lord ! ( Verse 2 & 3 )

Hi there, I'll just tidy up some lyrics for you so they flow better in English, but this is a really good attempt for someone writing in a language that is not their own.

Verse 1 : Hey sister ! Are you worrying about something ? (OR are you afraid of something) Just let God know about it all. (OR all that). Pray with him (OR pray to him) , He'll never let you down, never leave you alone in this world.

Verse 2 : Hey sister ! Do you feel lonely ? Just let God touch and hold your hands. When your light is almost gone, He'll stand by you and lead you home. (The imagery here is really nice)

Verse 3 : Hey sister ! Now lift your hands and praise the Lord, almighty Lord. Dry your tears and let him lead your life. He'll never leave you alone in this world.

Chorus : For He's the Lord, the Maker of this world. He'll hold your hands and guide you through the way (I'd change this to 'guide you through the dark') OR you could say 'guide you on your way'. He never lets you fall into the trap. He'll give you strength to go on.

* Just let God know ( Verse 1)
* We know You're there, Lord ! ( Verse 2 & 3 )
