Lyrics
TAKE MY HAND; WALK BESIDE ME
LIFT ME UP, IF I SHOULD FALL
FOR I NEED YOUR LIGHT TO GUIDE ME
WHEN THE NIGHT SURROUNDS US ALL
OH, THE ROAD IS DARK AND NARROW
BUT I HEAR MY BROTHER CALL
TAKE MY HAND AND WALK BESIDE ME
LIFT ME UP, IF I SHOULD FALL
LEAVE YOUR SORROWS AT THE ALTAR
CAST YOUR CARES ON ANGEL WINGS
EVERY SOUL BEARS THE REFLECTION
OF THE LOVE ANOTHER BRINGS
IF WE SHARE THE GIFTS WE'RE GIVEN
WE'LL NOT NEED ANOTHER THING
LEAVE YOUR SORROWS AT THE ALTAR
CAST YOUR CARES ON ANGEL WINGS
(INSTRUMENTAL BREAK)
TAKE MY HAND; WALK BESIDE ME
LIFT ME UP, IF I SHOULD FALL
FOR I NEED YOUR LIGHT TO GUIDE ME
WHEN THE NIGHT SURROUNDS US ALL
OH, THE ROAD IS DARK AND NARROW
BUT I HEAR MY SISTER CALL,
TAKE MY HAND AND WALK BESIDE ME
LIFT ME UP, IF I SHOULD FALL
TAKE MY HAND AND WALK BESIDE ME
LIFT ME UP, IF I SHOULD FALL...
