1 Hold thou my hand! so weak I am, and helpless, I dare not take one step without thy aid; Hold thou my hand! for then, O loving Saviour, No dread of ill shall make my soul afraid. 2 Hold thou my hand! and closer, closer draw me To thy dear self, my hope, my joy, my all; Hold thou my hand, lest haply I should wander, And, missing thee, my trembling feet should fall. 3 Hold thou my hand! the way is dark before me Without the sunlight of thy face divine; But when by faith I catch its radiant glory, What heights of joy, what rapturous songs are mine. 4 Hold thou my hand! that when I reach the margin Of that lone river thou didst cross for me, A heavenly light may flash across its waters, And every wave like crystal bright shall be.
