I’m Holding Fast

Author: Elsie Duncan Yale Hymnal: New Songs of Pentecost No. 2 #31 (1917) First Line: My Father's hand is clasped in mine Refrain First Line: I'm holding fast to my Father's hand Lyrics: 1 My Father’s hand is clasped in mine, I’m holding fast; Unto His promises divine, I’m holding fast; For what can part me from His love, Nor depth below nor height above; And from His care can naught remove, I’m holding fast. Refrain: I’m holding fast to my Father’s hand, I’ll love Him ever And naught shall sever whate’er betide, I’m holding fast to my Father’s hand; My faith in Him shall never fail, I’m holding fast. 2 Unto His word that stands for aye, I’m holding fast; Till heav’n and earth shall pass away, I’m holding fast; For as a rock and refuge sure, Thro’ ages long it shall endure; And so I rest, serene, secure, I’m holding fast. [Refrain] 3 Unto the hope that He has giv’n, I’m holding fast Unto the peace that comes from heav’n I’m holding fast; My faith in Him shall never fail, My anchor holds within the vail; To Him who ever shall prevail, I’m holding fast. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [My Father's hand is clasped in mine]
