wandering soul

oh

lend me a hand

please lord

and guide me

and help lead me down the road that is right

oh

carry me through these hours of darkness

and show me the path of shining light

i'm a wandering soul

i'm lost from my savior

a sheep that has strayed so far from the fold

just tarrying along in the clutch of old satan

but i'm hoping someday

you'll save my soul

dear lord

please forgive the grief i have caused you

the thought of my sins that tortures my soul

oh

help me to know the joy of salvation

help cleanse my life through and make me whole

i'm a wandering soul

lost from my savior

a sheep that has strayed so far from the fold

just a-tarrying along in the clutch of old satan

but i'm hoping someday

you'll save my soul
