If you should meet
Some lonely soul
Who on this earth
Can't reach his gold
And he's traveling down the road
So dark and dim
Lend the hand
Say a prayer
Give a smile
That he might share
But for the grace of God
It could be you instead of him
But for the grace of God
It could be you instead of him
Befriend each stranger in the night
Help to make his burdens light
Lift up the falling ones
And be a friend
Be a friend
Shed a tear
Share a sight
Share his fears
Don't pass him by
But for the grace of God
It could be you instead of him
It could be you instead of him
Shed a tear
Share a sigh
Share his fears
Don't pass him by
But for the grace of God
It could be you instead of him
It could be you instead of him
