Hand

On this path I walk
trying to find my way
at times I fear I've gone wrong
and struggle to change the way
Finally back going my way
too good to be
For now the path has fallen
here I go falling
How do you get back up
All I want is to be back on my path
I find, as I'm falling, someone reaching down towards me
I grab hold
I find myself back on path
and to my surprise I'm not alone
for this hands is yours
By my side you are now
Never shall I fall with you around
For you will catch me if I stumble
and not allow me to hit the ground
