Johnny Cash

John R. "Johnny" Cash (February 26, 1932 – September 12, 2003), was an American singer-songwriter, actor, and author, who has been called one of the most influential musicians of the 20th century. Although he is primarily remembered as a country music icon, his songs and sound spanned many other genres including rockabilly and rock and roll—especially early in his career—as well as blues, folk, and gospel. This crossover appeal led to Cash being inducted in the Country Music Hall of Fame, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and Gospel Music Hall of Fame. more »

If you should meet some lonely soul who on this earth can't reach his gold 
And he's traveling 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 falling 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
