Once I stood in the night

With my head bowed low

In the darkness as black as could be

And my heart felt alone and I cried oh Lord

Don't hide your face from me



Like a king I may live in a palace so 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

Hold my hand all the way, every hour every day

Come here to the great unknown



Take my hand, let me stand

Where no one stands alone



Take my hand, let me stand

Where no one stands alone
