Precious Lord, Take My Hand
Guiding Light Through Life's Shadows
Lyrics
When my way grows drear'
Expressing a sense of weariness or difficulty in life's journey.
Precious Lord
Addressing the divine with reverence and affection.
Linger near
Requesting the divine presence to stay close.
When my life is almost gone
Acknowledging the nearness of the end of life.
Hear my cry
Pleading for the divine to hear a heartfelt cry.
Hear my call
Reiterating the call for divine attention.
Hold my hand lest I fall
Seeking divine support to prevent falling or failing.
Take my hand, precious Lord
Requesting the divine to hold the hand and provide guidance.
Lead me home
Seeking guidance to lead back to a spiritual home.
Precious Lord, take my hand
Repetition of the plea for the divine to take control.
Lead me on
Seeking divine guidance to continue the journey.
Help me stand
Requesting divine help to stand firm in challenging times.
I am tired, I am weak, I am worn
Expressing fatigue, weakness, and a sense of being worn out.
Through the storm
Expressing a metaphorical storm or difficult period in life.
Through the night
Emphasizing the need for divine guidance through challenging times.
Lead me on to the light
Requesting guidance towards spiritual enlightenment.
Take my hand, precious Lord
Reiteration of the plea for divine assistance.
Lead me home
Seeking guidance to return to a spiritual home.
When my work is all done
Reflecting on the completion of life's work and journey.
And my race is run
Acknowledging the completion of life's race.
Let me see
Expressing the desire to see divine light and guidance.
By the light thou hast shown
Desiring illumination through divine revelation.
That fair city so bright
Describing a heavenly city characterized by brightness.
Where the lamb is the light
Symbolizing divine presence with the lamb as a source of light.
Take my hand, precious Lord
Repeating the plea for divine guidance and support.
Lead me home
Seeking guidance to return to a spiritual home.
Precious Lord, take my hand
Repetition of the plea for divine intervention.
Lead me on
Requesting divine guidance to continue the journey.
Help me stand
Seeking divine help to stand firm in challenging times.
I am tired, I am weak, I am worn
Expressing fatigue, weakness, and a sense of being worn out.
Through the storm
Expressing a metaphorical storm or difficult period in life.
Through the night
Emphasizing the need for divine guidance through challenging times.
Lead me on to the light
Requesting guidance towards spiritual enlightenment.
Take my hand, precious Lord
Reiteration of the plea for divine assistance.
Lead me home
Seeking guidance to return to a spiritual home.
Just take my hand, precious Lord
Final plea for divine guidance and assurance of being led home.
Lead me home
Repetition of the plea for divine intervention and guidance home.
