(Albert E. Brumley)

As I travel through this pilgrim land
there is a Friend who goes with me.
Leads me safely thro' the sinking sand
it is the Christ of Calvary.

This would be my pray'r, 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, hold my hand
I need Thee ev'ry hour,
Through this pilgrim land
Protect my by Thy pow'r.

Hear my feeble plea
O Lord, look down on me.
When I kneel in pray'r
I hope to meet you there,
Blessed Jesus, hold my hand.

Let me travel in the light divine
that I may see the blessed way;
Keep me that I may be wholly Thine
and sing redemption's 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 ev'ry hour,
Through this pilgrim land
Protect my by Thy pow'r.

Hear my feeble plea
O Lord, look down on me.
When I kneel in pray'r
I hope to meet you there,
Blessed Jesus, hold my hand.

When I kneel in prayer
I hope to meet You there
Blessed Jesus, hold my hand.
