Lyrics:

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.

Jesus, hold my hand, I need Thee ev'ry hour,
(Blessed Jesus, hold my hand)
(Yes, I need Thee ev'ry hour)
Thru this pilgrim land Protect my by Thy pow'r.
(Thru this land, this pilgrim land By Thy saving pow'r.)
Hear my feeble plea, O Lord, look down on me.
(Hear my plea, my feeble plea,
Lord, dear Lord, Look down on me)
When I kneel in pray'r I hope to meet you there,

(When I kneel in prayer)

Blessed Jesus, hold my hand.

(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.

Jesus, hold my hand,
(Blessed Jesus, hold my hand)
I need Thee ev'ry hour,
(Yes, I need Thee ev'ry hour)
Thru this pilgrim land Protect my by Thy pow'r.
(Thru this land, this pilgrim land By Thy saving pow'r.)
Hear my feeble plea, O Lord, look down on me.
(Hear my plea, my feeble plea,

Lord, dear Lord, Look down on me)
When I kneel in pray'r I hope to meet you there,
(When I kneel in prayer)

Blessed Jesus, hold my hand.
(Jesus, hold my hand)
When I kneel in pray'r I hope to meet you there,

(When I kneel in prayer)
Blessed Jesus, hold my hand.
(Jesus, hold my hand)

Jesus, hold my hand, I need Thee ev'ry hour,
(Blessed Jesus, hold my hand)
(Yes, I need Thee ev'ry hour)
Thru this pilgrim land Protect my by Thy pow'r.

(Thru this land, this pilgrim land By Thy saving pow'r.)
Hear my feeble plea, O Lord, look down on me.
(Hear my plea, my feeble plea,
Lord, dear Lord, Look down on me)

When I kneel in pray'r I hope to meet you there,
(When I kneel in prayer)
Blessed Jesus, hold my hand.
(Jesus, hold my hand)

Jesus, hold my hand, I need Thee ev'ry hour,
(Blessed Jesus, hold my hand)
(Yes, I need Thee ev'ry hour)
Thru this pilgrim land Protect my by Thy pow'r.
(Thru this land, this pilgrim land By Thy saving pow'r.)
Hear my feeble plea, O Lord, look down on me.
(Hear my plea, my feeble plea,
Lord, dear Lord, Look down on me)
When I kneel in pray'r I hope to meet you there,
(When I kneel in prayer)
Blessed Jesus, hold my hand.
(Jesus, hold my hand)
When I kneel in pray'r I hope to meet you there,
(When I kneel in prayer)
Blessed Jesus, hold my hand.
(Jesus, hold my hand)
