Lyrics for Song: Jesus Take a Hold
Lyrics for Album: Heartwarming Gospel Songs (w. Johnny Wright) [1972]



(Merle Haggard)

Johnny Wright



Like the ancient Roman empire this world is doin' to fall

And it's much too bigger thing for mortal men

Just take a look around and see the writing on the wall

Somehow we've got to find a helping hand.



This world has never been in the awful shape it's in

And people scorn the things our leaders do

It's time the prayer was spoken from the heart of every man

Jesus take a hold and lead us through.



--- Instrumental ---



The mighty roar of gunfire is now a local sound

And our city streets are filled with angry men

Love is now a mockery throughout our troubled land

And destruction seems to be the current trend.



This world has never been in the awful shape it's in

And our leaders seem in doubt of what to do

It's time the prayer was spoken from the heart of every man

Jesus take a hold and lead us through.



Jesus take a hold and lead us through...
