1 Hold my hand, dear Saviour,
All the pilgrim way,
For to Thee, the darkness
Shineth as the day;
When the clouds above me
Hide the sunny blue,
Let Thy light, pure and unfailing,
Brighten to my view.

Chorus:
Hark! I hear a precious promise,
Like a burst of music grand!
“Fear thee not: I have redeemed thee,
I will hold thee by the hand.”

2 Hold my hand, dear Saviour,
Foes my path surround;
In the hour of trial,
Make Thy grace abound;
While the battle rages,
Be my strength and shield;
Be Thy tender love more clearly
To my heart revealed. [Chorus]

3 Hold my hand, dear Saviour,
Keep me by Thy side;
In the steps of duty,
Be my gentle Guide;
Help me in Thy service,
Winning souls for Thee,
Till in Heaven’s fadeless glory,
I Thy face shall see. [Chorus]
