"Take My Hand, Precious Lord" by Thomas A. Dorsey

The beautiful "Take My Hand, Precious Lord", arranged by Thomas A. Dorsey, as sung by me. The melody, although credited to Thomas Dorsey, was actually written by George N. Allen; Mr. Dorsey said that he used Mr. Allen's melody "for inspiration." The lyrics, however, were written by Thomas A. Dorsey.

Lyrics (by Thomas A. Dorsey):

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.




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.
