Lyrics

Now I lay me down to sleep I pray the Lord my soul to keep and ev 'ry mo ment I'm a-wake I pray the Lord my soul to take. Now as I walk down this wind-ing road I need you to light-en the load. Hey now take my hand. I'll lead you to the Pro-mised Land. One cold De-cem- ber so long a-go we watched the snow cling to the trees. Your lips were so warm as you kissed my hand. We would 've sailed the sev-en seas. But when you walked a- way said you could not stay and love lay dy-ing like a wound-ed dove. But if you come back now I will take your hand & lead you to the Pro- mised Land. Are you feel- ing lone- y? Do you need a friend? Well is the pain too much to stand? The seeds of love are sown in- side and the mem-'ries of our lives will guide our hands. So as you fly a- way I will sing the day & meet you in the Pro- mised Land. Take my hand to the Pro-mised Land! But when you walked a- way said you could not stay and love lay bleed-ing like a wound-ed dove But if it needs to be, then I will set you free & meet you in the Pro- mised Land. Take my hand to the Pro-mised Land! Now I lay me down to sleep I pray the Lord my soul to keep and ev 'ry mo ment I'm a-wake I pray the Lord your soul to take.
