“LEAD ME BY THE HAND” by The Hillbilly Thomists

[Intro]
G
G
Nightfall this way comes
D              C
I am tired and far from home
    G
And I don't know how this goes
D         C      G
I only know how it seems
G
Seems like a perfect night
D               C
If only I had a light within
  G
And without, all around
D         C       G     D
Master, I want to see
            G       C      G
So won't You lead me by the hand
        C                 Em    C        G
When I'm blind and I can't find a place to stand
C      G            C        Em
All is sin, all I'm doing is sinking more
C           G
Waiting for You to lead me by the hand
Someone this way comes
They say He's the One who'll lead me home
And I don't know where I'm going
I only know where I've been
I've been everywhere
Keep on going over these same old roads
Keep going over me
I'm ready for You to lead
So won't You lead me by the hand
When I'm blind and I can't find a place to stand
All is sin, all I'm doing is sinking more
Waiting for You to lead me by the hand
D
And when that morning star
C                    G/B
Rises in my heart of darkness
    D               C    D
I'll know You're not far away
C
He-ey

G D C Cadd9 G D Cadd9 G D

D
When that morning star
C
Rises in my heart
G/B             D      G      D
And brightness becomes another way
C
He-ey
So won't You lead me by the hand
When I'm blind and I can't find a place to stand
All is sin, all I'm doing is sinking more
Waiting for You to lead me by the hand
G
Someone this way comes
    D                       C    C/G G
They say He's the One who'll lead me home
