Father, Hold My Hand

Author: Anna G. Holt Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #15943 First Line: When heavy clouds o’erspread my sky Lyrics: 1 When heavy clouds o’erspread my sky And on the path I travel by, There falls no cheering ray of light, And I must walk by faith, not sight, Then, Father, hold my hand. 2 Tho’ heavily my burdens press, I will not live and trust Thee less; When steeper grows my weary way, Help me to follow and obey, And closer hold my hand. 3 Or, if sometime the sun should shine, And brighter, happier days be mine; If I with joy should lift my head, And smile to find the shadows fled, Still, Father, hold my hand. Languages: English Tune Title: CHELYABINSK
