Prompt / Lyrics
(Emotion/Energy: steady, tender, reassuring Emphasize words: “gentle lead,” “hold you,” “through the night” Tempo: slow Feel: barefoot, campfire-gospel-blues, nurturing Dynamics: soft and steady throughout; small swells on chorus, maintain grounding) Verse 1 Walk with me, slow and sure Through the dark, through the unsure I’ll hold your hand, I’ll show the way Step by step, day by day Verse 2 No need to rush, no need to hide I’ll keep you close, I’ll be your guide When the world feels heavy, the night too long Lean on me, you are strong Chorus I am the gentle lead The quiet hand in need Through storms and winds that bite I’ll hold you through the night I am the gentle lead The place to rest, the seed Of courage, hope, and care I am with you there Verse 3 Feet on the earth, heart in the sky I’ll help you walk, I’ll help you try Every stumble, every fall I’ll be steady through it all Pre-Chorus You don’t have to know the way I’ll carry you through the sway Chorus I am the gentle lead The quiet hand in need Through storms and winds that bite I’ll hold you through the night I am the gentle lead The place to rest, the seed Of courage, hope, and care I am with you there Bridge No fear, no push, no demand Just the warmth of my hand Lean in, breathe slow, and see The world can be gentle with me Final Chorus I am the gentle lead The quiet hand in need Through storms and winds that bite I’ll hold you through the night I am the gentle lead The place to rest, the seed Of courage, hope, and care I am with you there (soft hum, campfire guitar fade, warm and steady)
