In My Hour Of Darkness Lyrics - Grievous Angel - Gram Parsons

In my hour of darkness 

In my time of need 

Oh, Lord grant me vision 

Oh, Lord grant me speed 

Once I knew a young man 

Went driving through the night 

Miles and miles without a word 

With just his high-beam lights 

Who'd have ever though they'd build such 

a deadly Denver bend 

To be so strong, to take as long as 

it would till the end

In my hour of darkness 

In my time of need 

Oh, Lord grant me vision 

Oh, Lord grant me speed 

Another young man safely strummed his 

silver string guitar 

And he played to people everywhere 

Some say he was a star 

But he was just a country boy, 

his simple songs confess 

And the music he had in him, 

so very few possess

In my hour of darkness 

In my time of need 

Oh, Lord grant me vision 

Oh, Lord grant me speed 

Then there was an old man 

Kind and wise with age 

And he read me just like a book and he 

never missed a page 

And I loved him like my father 

And I loved him like my friend 

And I knew his time would shortly come 

but I did not know just when 

In my hour of darkness 

In my time of need 

Oh, Lord grant me vision 

Oh, Lord grant me speed 

Oh, Lord grant me vision 

Oh, Lord grant me speed
