[C]
[Bb] [F]
In my hour of darkness, in my time of need, [C] O Lord, grant me vision, [Bb] O Lord, grant [F] me speed.
Once I knew a young man, went driving through the night, [C]
miles and miles without a word,
[Bb] but just his [C] high [F] beam lights.
[Bb] Who'd have ever [F] thought they'd build [Bb] such a deadly [F] Denver bend?
[C] To be so strong, to take so [Bb] long, as it would till [F] the end.

[Bb]
[F] In my hour of darkness, [Gm] [F] in my time of need, [C] O Lord, grant me vision, [Bb] O Lord, grant [F] me speed.
Another young man safely strung his silver string guitar, [C] and he played to people everywhere.
[Bb] Some say he was [F] a star.
[Bb] But he was just [F] a country boy, [Bb] his simple song [F] confessed, [C] and the music he had in him
[Bb] So very few [F] possess.
In [C] my hour [F] of darkness, in my time of need, [C] O Lord, grant me vision, [Bb] O Lord, grant [F] me speed.
[C]
[Bb]
[F] Then there was an old man, kind and wise with age, [C] and he read me just like a book, [Bb] and
he never missed [F] a page.
[Bb] And I loved him like my [F] father, [Bb] and I loved him like my [F] friend, [C] and I knew his time could
shortly come, [Bb] but I did not know just [F] when.
In my hour of darkness, in my time of need, [C] O Lord, grant me vision, [Bb] O Lord, grant me [F] speed.
[C] O Lord, grant me vision, [Bb] O Lord, grant me [F] speed.
O Lord, grant me vision, O Lord, grant me speed.
