Pre cious Lord,

lead me (C)on

to the light.

Take my (G)hand

(Em)pre cious (G)Lord,

(D7)lead me (G)home.

When my

When my (G)life

hear my (G)cry

hear my (G7)call,

hold my (C)hand

lest I fall.

Take my (G)hand,

lead me (C)home.

Pre cious Lord,

Through the (G)storm,

through the (G7)night,
