Take My Hand

Are you troubled, burdened, blue? 
Take my hand. 
I've been troubled, burdened, too,
I understand.
Where you've fallen, once I fell - 
Oh, I know these pitfalls well. 
Let me help the clouds dispel - 
Take my hand. 

Others helped when I was weak,
Took my hand,
Helped me face towards the peak,
Helped me stand.
What they did, now let me do - 
Pass that kindness on to you.
Some day you'll help others, too.
Take my hand.
