When I reach the shining shore, the shining shore of life,
And walk on the golden strand.

My Saviour, King Divine;
The way is so dark for me alone,
Oh, take my hand in Thine. [Refrain]

Tho’ dark the lonely way,
Oh, guide Thou my weary wand’ring feet
To realms of endless day. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Take hold of my hand, O blessed Christ]
