VERSE 1:
AS I TRAVEL THRU THIS PILGRIM LAND
THERE IS A FRIEND WHO WALKS WITH ME
LEADS ME SAFELY THRU 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
THRU THIS PILGRIM LAND PROTECT ME 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 .
VERSE 2:
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 SOMEDAY
I WILL BE A SOLDIER BRAVE AND TRUE
AND EVER FIRMLY TAKE A STAND
AS I FORWARD GO AND DAILY MEET THE FOE
BLESSED JESUS HOLD MY HAND .
REPEAT CHORUS ONCE + TAG :
TAG :
WHEN I KNEEL IN PRAY’R I HOPE TO MEET YOU THERE
BLESSED JESUS HOLD MY HAND.
