Lord Hold My Hand
Dolly Parton · Letter To Heaven: Songs Of Faith & Inspiration [1999]
Hold my hand let's not lose my way
Hold my hand and lead me home
Guide each step that I might take
Hold my hand and keep me strong.
And let the path I walk be straight
Let the deeds I do be kind
Let me never hesitate to help
My brother walking blind.
Hold my hand let's not lose my way
Hold my hand and lead me home
Guide each step that I might take
Hold my hand and keep me strong.
And let my words have meaning
Of anything that I might speak
If you see me leaning on
Just hold my hand and straighten me.
Hold my hand let's not lose my way
Hold my hand and lead me home
Guide each step that I might take
Hold my hand and keep me strong.
Amen...
