Ben E. King released Stand By Me in 1961, and it is still a beloved song by millions of people around the world!
Stand By Me has been a wedding favourite for decades, but none more notable than the Royal Wedding between Prince Harry and Meghan Markle in 2018!Â
Before exchanging their vows in Windsor Castle, Karen Gibson and The Kingdom Choir performed a gospel version of the song, which was chosen by the couple.
