Hold Fast to the Right |
| Well I gave you to God in your cradle my boy |
| And I’ve taught you the best that I knew |
| And as long as His mercies permit me to live |
| I shall never cease praying for you |
| Hold fast to the right hold fast to the right |
| Wherever your footsteps shall roam |
| And forsake not the way of salvation my boy |
| That you learned from your mother at home |
| Well you leave us to seek your employment my boy |
| By the world you have yet to be tried |
| But in temptations and trials you eet my boy |
| May your heart to the Savior confide |
| Hold fast to the right hold fast to the right |
| Wherever your footsteps shall roam |
| And forsake not the way of salvation my boy |
| That you learned from your mother at home |
| You will find in your satchel a Bible my boy |
| It’s the book of all others the best |
| It will help you to live and prepare you to die |
| And will lead to the gates of the blest |
| Hold fast to the right hold fast to the right |
| Wherever your footsteps shall roam |
| And forsake not the way of salvation my boy |
| That you learned from your mother at home |
