Hold My Hand

Author: Anna McClintock Hymnal: Boundless Love #198 (1896) First Line: Father hold my hand Refrain First Line: I cannot walk alone by sight Lyrics: 1 Father hold my hand; For darksome is the way, And through the clouds that veil my path I cannot see the day. I cannot walk alone by sight, But with thee, Father, all is light. 2 Father hold my hand; For rugged is the road, And sin and Satan worketh hard To keep my soul from God. I cannot walk alone by sight, But with thee, Father, all is light. 3 Father hold my hand; My soul would faint and die If in this desert-land of sin Thou, Father, wert not nigh. I cannot walk alone by sight, But with thee, Father, all is light. 4 Father hold my hand; And then whate’er shall come, Safely I’ll reach my journey’s end, And gain sweet rest at home. I would not walk alone by sight, For faith in thee makes darkness light. Languages: English Tune Title: [Father hold my hand]
