Lyrics

When you're down and troubled
 You need some loving care
 Ain't nothing, ain't nothing going right
 Close, close your eyes
 Meditate on Him
 And soon he will be there
 God can brighten up
 He can brighten up your darkest hours
 (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, be my friend)
 (You just call out His name) precious Lord, take my hand
 (And you know wherever you are) lead me on, let me stand
 (He will be there to see you again) I get tired, I am weak, and I get worn, I get worn
 (Winter, spring, summer or fall) through the storm, through the night
 (All you got to do is call) lead me on, Lord, to the light
 (And He'll be there, ooh) and I'll be there
