| As I travel through this pilgrim land
|
| There is a friend, who walks with me
|
| Leads me safely through the sinking sand
|
| It is the Christ of Calvary
|
| This would be my prayer dear Lord each day
|
| To help me do the best I can
|
| For I need the light to guide me day and night
|
| Blessed Jesus hold my hand
|
| Jesus, hold my hand, I need, thee every hour
|
| Through, this pilgrim land, protect me by Thy power
|
| Hear my feeble plea, O Lord, look down on me
|
| Instrumental — Follow pattern of last two lines in Chorus*
|
| Let me travel in the light divine
|
| That I may see, the blessed way
|
| Keep me that I may be wholly Thine
|
| And sing redemption’s song some day
|
| I will be a soldier brave and true
|
| And ever firmly take a stand
|
| As I onward go and daily meet the foe
|
| Blessed Jesus hold my hand
|
| Repeat Chorus
|
| When I kneel in prayer I hope to meet you there
|
| Blessed Jesus hold my hand |
