Once I stood in the night
With my head bowed low
In the darkness as black as the sea
And my heart felt alone
And I cried, "Oh, Lord
Don't hide Thy face from me"

Take my hand all the way
Every hour, every day
From here to the grave
I know
Take my hand
Let me stand
Where no one stands alone

Like a king, I may live
In a palace tall
With great riches to call my own
But I don't know a thing
In this whole wide world
That's worse than being alone

Take my hand all thе way
Every hour, every day
From hеre to the grave
I know
Take my hand
Let me stand
Where no one stands alone
