Give me Your Hand, I am but a Man


Give me a hand

For I cannot stand

On my own two feet

I am in too deep

 

Share me your land

And together we will band

I at my lead

And you at your creed

 

You teach me that I can

I’ve never been so—

This thing between you and me

I give myself to thee.

 

I am but a man

I thank you for your hand

You dug me free,

I will always love you, whoever I will be
