Take My Hand

Take My Hand is a song that can be interpreted in many ways. It was however originally written about the flow of life as it passes into that final, transitional journey towards death.

Lyrics

I'm asleep - won’t you come wake me?
For the sun is rising in the clear blue sky
And upon the green grass the dew drops glisten
Will you walk with me? Just take my hand

Take my hand
(I'll take your hand)

Over the wet grass through long meadows rolling
Hear the cool waters singing in the babbling brook
The waters are calling beckoning, luring
Won’t you drift with me? Come take my hand

Take my hand
(I'll take your hand)

The rivers are rolling, currents are raging
Tempestuous waters flowing all around
Down toward the shore, there’s no turning back now
Surrender to me - Just take my hand

Take my hand
(I'll take your hand)

Where the earth meets the ocean, waves are crashing
Over the shingle, over the sand
Flowing ever deeper into cold briny water
Won’t you sink with me? Just take my hand

Take my hand
(I'll take your hand)

I’m asleep - won’t you come wake me?
For my sun has set and the sky is black
And upon my sea bed, I sleep in darkness
Won’t you lay with me? Just take my hand

Take my hand
Just take my hand
Take my hand
Just take my hand​
