Elvis Presley's 'Where No One Stands Alone' is a gospel song expressing a deep longing for God's presence and companionship. The lyrics describe a person feeling isolated and crying out to God not to hide His face. The central plea is for God to take the singer's hand and lead them to a place where they are never alone, emphasizing human vulnerability and the need for divine support. The song contrasts earthly riches with the emptiness of loneliness, ultimately finding solace in God's constant presence. It reflects themes of dependence on God and the comfort found in His nearness.

Once I stood in the night

With my head bowed low

In the darkness as black as could be

And my heart felt alone and I cried oh Lord

Don't hide your face from me


Take my hand, let me stand 

Where no one stands alone 


Like a king I may live in a palace so tall

With great riches to call my own

But I don't know a thing

In this whole wide world

That's worse than being alone

Hold my hand all the way, every hour every day

Come here to the great unknown


Take my hand, let me stand

Where no one stands alone


Take my hand, let me stand

Where no one stands alone
