Once I stood in the night with my head bowed low
In the darkness as black as the sea
And my heart was afraid and I cried
Oh Lord, don't hide your face from me.

Hold my hand all the way, every hour
Every day from here to the great unknown
Take my hand, let me stand
Where no one stands alone.

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 from here to the great unknown
Take my hand, let me stand
Where no one stands alone...
