I'm not really sure of the lyrics but I think it goes something like this
"Take my hand, reach out and...", this is all I can remember
I do know for a fact that it is a song from the '80s
I thought it was The Cure but not sure about that
Help please?

Is this a religious song or what genre is it? Pop, R&B, Ballad, Country? Is the one you
Are looking for by a male or female vocalist?

You might be thinking of "Personal Jesus" by Depeche Mode. Those aren't exactly the words - but when you mentioned The Cure, it got me thinking in that direction. Here's a link to the song:
YouTube - Depeche Mode - Personal Jesus, live at Rock Am Ring 6-04-06

It's kind of new-wave, '80s
And it is most def. a male's voice

I'm not familiar with New Wave, but try looking through the various songs
At the link below that have the lyrics you provided, and, hopefully, it will
Be among them.

Take my hand reach out and - Google Search

Ok, I figured it out!
It was "Tenderness" by General Public
It was so weird how I found it, I was watching VH1's "One Hit Wonder of the '80s" and it was on the list
So yeaaa :D

Oh yeah - good song
