Precious Lord (with overdubs) Songtext
von B.B. King

Precious Lord, take my hand
Lead me on, let me stand
I′m tired, Lord, I'm weak
I am worn, oh-yeah

Through the storm, through the night
Lead me on, Lord, to the light
Take my hand (take my hand), precious Lord (precious Lord)
Lead me home (lead me home)


When I sit, sit alone
Thinking of my mother at home
I can see her and oh, oh, I′m cheered

How I love to hear her voice
Oh, how it makes my heart rejoice, so
Take my hand (take my hand), precious Lord (precious Lord)
Lead me home (lead me home)

When darkness, darkness appears
Oh, precious Lord, lay your hand
When my life, my life is almost gone, oh, yes


At the river, Lord, I stand (yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes)
And guide my feet Lord and hold my hand (yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes)
Yes, take my hand (take my hand), precious Lord (precious Lord)
And lead me home (lead me home)
