Hold My Hand Poem by Bamisaye Adeniran

I’m a man in the dark, can’t find my way
Hold my hand
Lost in the midst of the crowd
Hold my hand.

My guide can take me no further
Hold my hand
I need your superior guide
Hold my hand.

The road is rough, can’t walk it on my own
Hold my hand
Without you my stumble is inevitable
Hold my hand.

I thirst for the prize to be won
Hold my hand
With you I claim the prize at stake
Hold my hand.

I’m filled with joy
For I’ve gotten to my heaven
And not by my strength
But because your hand was present.
