Precious Lord, Take My Hand/You've Got a Friend (Live at New Temple Missionary Baptist Church, Los Angeles, January 13, 1972)
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
