V1 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 V2 This would be my prayer dear Lord each day To help me do the best I can For I need the light to guide me day and night Blessed Jesus hold my hand Chorus: Jesus, hold my hand, I need, thee every hour Through, this pilgrim land, protect me by Thy power Hear my feeble plea, O Lord, look down on me *When I kneel in prayer I hope to meet you there *Blessed Jesus hold my hand Instrumental – Follow pattern of last two lines in Chorus* 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 Repeat Chorus When I kneel in prayer I hope to meet you there Blessed Jesus hold my hand
