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
As I need Thy light to guide me Day and night
Precious Jesus hold my hand.

CHORUS
Jesus hold my hand,
I need Thee every hour
Through this pilgrim land,
Oh! help me by Thy power
Hear my feeble plea oh dear Lord
Look down on me
When I kneel In prayer
I hope to meet you there;
Blessed Jesus hold my hand.

Let me travel in Thy light divine
That I may see Thy blessed way
Keep me that I may be wholly Thine
And sing redemption 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.

CHORUS
Jesus hold my hand,
I need Thee every hour
Through this pilgrim land,
Oh! help me by Thy power
Hear my feeble plea oh dear Lord
Look down on me
When I kneel In prayer
I hope to meet you there;
Blessed Jesus hold my hand.

When I wander thro^ the valley of death
Towards the setting of the sun,
Lead me safely to the land of rest
To wear a crown of life I've won;
I here put my faith on Thee dear Lord
That I may reach that golden strand,
There's no other friend on whom I can depend
Blessed Jesus hold my hand.

CHORUS
Jesus hold my hand,
I need Thee every hour
Through this pilgrim land,
Oh! help me by Thy power
Hear my feeble plea oh dear Lord
Look down on me
When I kneel In prayer
I hope to meet you there;
Blessed Jesus hold my hand.
