Jesus Hold My Hand

Old Gospel Hymn By Albert E. Brumley

Verse I

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 Thy Light to guide me day and night

Blessed Jesus, hold my hand

Chorus

Jesus, (Blessed Jesus) hold my hand, (hold my hand)

I need (yes I need) Thee every hour (every hour)

Through (this land) this pilgrim land (pilgrim land)

Protect me by Thy power (saving power)

Hear (hear my plea) my feeble plea (feeble plea)

Dear Lord (yes dear Lord) look down on me (down on me)

When I kneel in prayer I hope to me you there

Blessed Jesus, hold my hand (hold my hand)

(Fiddle playing 4 bars before Verse II begins)

Verse II

Let me travel in the light divine

That I might see the Blessed way

Keep me that I may be holy Thine

And sing redemption song someday

I will be a soldier brave and true

And ever firmly take a stand

For there’s no other friend on whom I can depend

Blessed Jesus, hold my hand

Repeat Chorus two times, then:

When I kneel in prayer I hope to me you there

Blessed Jesus hold, my hand (hold my hand)
