“Take My Hand, Precious Lord” is more than just a song; it’s a heartfelt anthem that resonates with many. The Gaither Homecoming series brought this classic to life, featuring Sherman Andrus and Jeff Easter. The song, originally written by Thomas A. Dorsey in the 1930s, speaks to the soul’s yearning for comfort and guidance. It captures moments of struggle and hope, making it timeless. Andrus breathe new life into this beloved hymn with a very emotional delivery. You will feel every note as all the audience sing along, united in spirit. What a blessing!
The Gaither Vocal Band was founded in the early ’80s by renowned Christian music leader Bill Gaither. GVB became one of America’s leading southern gospel vocal groups. While Bill Gaither remained the only original member of the ensemble, many well-regarded CCM/gospel singers have passed through the band’s ranks, including Russ Taff, Guy Penrod, Wes Hampton, Michael English, Mark Lowry, and David Phelps. Today, the Gaither Vocal Band roster is comprised of five power-packed voices, including Bill Gaither, Wes Hampton, Adam Crabb, Todd Suttles and Reggie Smith.

Take My Hand, Precious Lord
Precious Lord, take my hand,
Lead me on, let me stand,
I am tired, I am weak, I am worn;
Through the storm, through the night,
Lead me on to the light:
Refrain
Take my hand, precious Lord,
Lead me home.
When my way grows drear,
Precious Lord, linger near,
When my life is almost gone,
Hear my cry, hear my call,
Hold my hand lest I fall:
When the darkness appears
And the night draws near,
And the day is past and gone,
At the river I stand,
Guide my feet, hold my hand:
Words: Thomas A. Dorsey, 1932.
Music: Adapted by Thomas Dorsey from the tune Maitland, by George N. Allen, 1844
