Hold Thou my hand: so weak I am, and helpless;

Fanny Jane Crosby (1820-1915)

3 Verses Guidance In Darkness Dependence On God Faith & Assurance

Verse 1

Hold Thou my hand: so weak I am, and helpless; I dare not take one step without Thy aid. Hold Thou my hand: for then, O Loving Savior, No dread of ill shall make my soul afraid.

Verse 2

Hold Thou my hand: and closer, closer draw me To Thy dear self, my hope, my joy, my all; Hold Thou my hand: lest haply I should wander, And missing Thee, my trembling feet should fall.

Verse 3

Hold Thou my hand: the way is dark before me Without the sunlight of Thy face divine; But when by faith I catch its radiant glory, What heights of joy, what rapturous songs are mine.
