G
As I wander through this pilgrim land
C G
There is a friend who walks with me
A A7 D D7
Leads me safely through the sinking sand it is the Christ of Calvary

This would be my prayer dear Lord each day
C G
To help me do the best I can
C G
For I need thy light to guide me day and night
D7 G
Blessed Jesus hold my hand
C G
Jesus hold my hand I need thee every hour
A A7 D D7
Through this pilgrim land protect me by thy power
G C G
Hear my feeble plea oh Lord look down on me
C G
When I kneel in prayer I hope to meet you there
D7 G
Blessed Jesus hold my hand
C G
Let me travel in the light divine that I may see the blessed way
A A7 D D7
Keep me that I may be wholly Thine and sing redemption's song someday
G C G
I will be a soldier brave and true and ever firmly take a stand
C G D7 G
As I onward go and daily meet the foe Blessed Jesus hold my hand
C G
When I wander through the valley dim toward the setting of the sun
A A7 D D7
Lead me safely to a land of rest if I a crown of life have won
G
I have put my faith in thee dear Lord
C G
That I may reach the golden strand
C G
There's no other friend on whom I can depend
D7 G
Blessed Jesus hold my hand
