Long ago, in a parable of old...
Jesus told of a bruised and battered soul,
Layin' out beside the way, people passed him on that day,
There was no one to help, a helpless sinner man....
Verse Number Two:
A Samaritan was traveling down that road,
Saw a shattered life beneath life's heavy load
Bound him up with oil and wine, took him to an Inn that night,
Gave a helping hand, to a helpless sinner man
The Chorus:
LEND, A HELPING HAND TO A HELPLESS SINNER MAN
PULL HIM OUT OF THIS OLD LIFE'S SINKING SAND
PUT HIS FEET UPON A ROCK, HELP HIM BACK UP TO THE TOP,
LEND, A HELPING HAND TO A HELPLESS SINNER MAN
[Instrumental] Fiddle - Banjo
Third Verse:
Years ago, I was a sinner so undone
A lonely man who needed help from God's own Son
He picked me up from way down low
Gave me joy back in my soul
A helping hand He gave, to this helpless sinner man
Last Chorus:
LEND, A HELPING HAND TO A HELPLESS SINNER MAN
PULL HIM OUT OF THIS OLD LIFE'S SINKING SAND
PUT HIS FEET UPON A ROCK, HELP HIM BACK UP TO THE TOP,
LEND, A HELPING HAND TO A HELPLESS SINNER MAN
PUT HIS FEET UPON A ROCK, HELP HIM BACK UP TO THE TOP......
LEND, A HELPING HAND TO A HELPLESS SINNER MAN
Tag: Oh...lend a helping hand to a helpless sinner man
