You get pdfs of the vocal and piano/vocal scores, and an mp3 of a live recording of the arrangement. Thomas Dorsey composed "Precious Lord" in 1932 after the deaths of his wife and infant son during childbirth. This arrangement works equally well sung a cappella or with piano accompaniment.
LYRICS Precious Lord, take my hand Lead me on, let me stand I'm tired, I am weak I am worn Through the storm, through the night Lead me on to the light 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 Take my hand precious Lord, lead me home
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, Take my hand precious Lord, lead me home.
