Take My Hand

Praise, praise, oh

Lord, I stand before You once again

I'm so glad that I know You understand

I've done everything I know how to do

And as usual, I end up crying out to you

I've tried so hard to do my best

But I don't feel like I'lll make it through this test

I can't remember feeling so much pain

And my tears keep fallin' like the pourin' rain

I try to force myself to wear a smile

But it's just not there

This pain I'm feeling deep inside my heart

Seems so unfair

It really feels like I won't make it through another day

So I stand before You with a broken heart

And all I can say is

Precious Lord, please

(Take my hand)

You know what I'm talkin' about out there

Lead me on, ooh, yeah

(Help me stand) Help me to stand, please help me now

See, I can't front, Lord, standing here today

'Cause I stumbled here and there along the way

I'm prayin' even as I sing this song, Lord

For my breakthrough, I hope it won't be too long

I try to force myself to wear a smile

But it's just not there

This pain I'm feeling deep inside my heart

Seems so unfair

This time, I feel like I won't make it through another day

So I come before You with a broken heart

And all I can say

Precious Lord, please

(Take my hand) Would you do that?

Would you please do that for me?

Lead me on, lead me on

(Help me stand) Help me to stand, help me to stand, yeah

Deep down, I know You will come through

That's why I'm reaching, reaching out to You

'Cause I need to feel Your loving arms again

And when I feel your loving touch, that's when

I'll be okay, I will be okay, I will make it if you take my hand

(Take my hand) Lead me on, lead me on, Lord

(Take my hand) I won't make it without You, Jesus

(Take my hand) I won't make it without You

Hold me, (Hold me) Please hold me (Hold me)

'Cause I'm standin' here

(Take my hand) God, I need your touch, Lord

I won't make it another day

(Take my hand) 'Cause I tried it my way

But these tears keep fallin'

(Take my hand) And this pain keeps growin'

Hold me, (Hold me) and if I know You're holdin' me (Hold me)

Then I can count on this

I know my breakthrough (Breakthrough) is on the way

(Breakthrough) I can rest assured

(Breakthrough) With tears in my eyes

(I know I praise the Lord) I can stand my ground

(Breakthrough) And I can say

(Breakthrough) Hold me, Jesus

(Breakthrough) Hold me, Jesus

(I know I praise the Lord) He really is

(Breakthrough) Somebody say it

(Breakthrough) Like you mean it

(Breakthrough) Yeah, like you mean it, yeah, yeah

(I know I praise the Lord) My situations

(Breakthrough) Might still be the same

(Breakthrough) But I'm countin' on you

(Breakthrough) I know You'll come through, You will

(I know I praise the Lord) Gotta say yes

(Yes) My flesh will say yes

(Yes) My tears will say yes

(Yes) My heart will say yes

(I know I praise the Lord) My change is on the way

(Yes) And your change is on the way

(Yes) Breakthrough

(Yes) Breakthrough, yes
