Johnny cash it could be you (instead of him) lyrics

If you should meet some lonely soul who on this earth can't reach his gold 

And he's travelin' down the road so dark and dim 

Lend the hand say a prayer give a smile that he might share 

But for the grace of God it could be you instead of him 

(But for the grace of God it could be you instead of him) 

Be friend each stranger in the night help to make his burdens light 

Lift up the fallin' ones and be a friend 

Shed a tear share a sight Share his fears don't pass him by 

But for the grace of God it could be you instead of him 

(It could be you instead of him) 

Shed a tear share a sight...
