Precious Lord, Take My Hand

1. Precious Lord, take my hand, 
    Lead me on, help me stand;
    I am tired, I am weak, I am worn;
    Through the storm , through the night, 
    Lead me on to the light;
    Take my hand, precious Lord, lead me home.

2. When my way grows drear,
    Precious Lord, linger near;
    When my life is almost gone,
    Hear my cry, hear my call, 
    Hold my hand lest I fall;
    Take my hand, precious Lord, lead me home.
