Precious Lord, Take My Hand PRECIOUS LORD/Thomas A. Dorsey 1. Precious Lord, take my hand, Lead me on, let 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. 3. When the darkness appears And the night draws near, And the day is past and gone, At the river I stand, Guide my feet, hold my hand: Take my hand, precious Lord, lead me home.
