Verse Number One:
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 travelin' 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 helpin' 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
SINKIN' SAND...
PUT HIS FEET UPON A ROCK
HELP HIM BACK UP TO THE TOP
LEND A HELPIN HAND...
TO A HELPLESS SINNER MAN...

A lonely man..who needed help from God's own Son...

Repeat Chorus:
LEND A HELPING HAND
TO A HELPLESS SINNER MAN...
