AND THERE'S TROUBLE CROSS THE LAND~
WE CAN ALMOST HEAR HIM WHISPER~
PRECIOUS CHILDREN_TAKE MY HAND~
YOU WILL NEVER HAVE A PROBLEM~
THAT I CANNOT UNDERSTAND~
I WILL BEAR YOUR EVERY BURDEN~
IF YOU'LL ONLY, TAKE MY HAND~
WHEN YOUR TRIALS SEEM MUCH TOO HEAVY~
AND YOU FEEL YOU CANNOT STAND~
I WILL BE THE CRUTCH YOU LEAN ON~
PRECIOUS CHILDREN_TAKE MY HAND~
O'ER THE EARTH,MY EYES ARE ROAMING~
THERE IS NAUGHT I CANNOT SEE~
TAKE MY HAND AND LOOK TOWARD HEAVEN~
THEN JUST PUT YOUR TRUST IN ME~
THERE'S NO SICKNESS, I CAN'T CONQUER~
THERE'S NO STORM I CANNOT CALM~
FOR I PAID FOR ALL YOUR TRIALS~
WITH THE NAILPRINTS IN MY PALM~
DOES NOT MATTER WHAT YOU'RE FACING~
YOU DON'T HAVE TO UNDERSTAND~
PUT YOUR TRUST IN ME, MY CHILDREN~
JUST REACH UP, AND TAKE MY HAND~
I WILL BEAR YOUR EVERY BURDEN~
I'LL BRING PEACE TO EVERY LAND~
IF MY CHILDREN WILL OBEY ME~
AND REACH OUT AND, TAKE MY HAND~
