When I find myself in times of trouble Mother Mary comes to me Speaking words of wisdom Let it be And in my hour of darkness She is standing right in front of me Speaking words of wisdom Let it be (chorus) Let it be Let it be Let it be Let it be Whisper words of wisdom Let it be When the broken hearted people Are living in a world of grief There will be an answer Let it be Although there may be heartaches There is still a chance that they will see There will be an answer Let it be (chorus) When the night is cloudy There is still a light that shines on me Shines untill tomorrow Let it be When I wake up to the sound of music Mother Mary comes to me Speaking words of wisdom Let it be (chorus ad lib) publishing : Northern Songs 1970
