Hold Me Closely

Hold me closely, hold me softly
Don't let me fall on my own
Love me gently, don't love me at all
I'll get back on
On my feet right after I fall

There is a path in this place called my life
Don't know if I can travel alone
Need someone to take me by my hand
Lead me safely to the promised land

So hold me closely, hold me softly
Don't let me fall on my own
Love me gently, don't love me at all
I'll get back on
On my feet right after I fall

Now in life's shadows we appear afraid
But there will be light shine
Down on us someday gracefully we're sighing
We've nothing to hide
We'll meet again in the by and by
