[Verse] 
EAE As I travel through this pilgrim land, There is a friend who walks with me.
EB Leads me safely through the sinking sand It is the Christ at Calvary
EAE This would be my prayer, dear Lord, each day. You help me do the best I can.
EAE For I need Thy light to guide me day and night. Blessed Jesus, hold my hand
 [Chorus] 
EAE Jesus, hold my hand, For I need Thee every hour.
EB Through this pilgrim land, Pro-tect me by Thy power.
EAE Hear my feeble plea, O Lord, look down on me.
EAEEC When I kneel in prayer, I hope to meet You there. Blessed Jesus, hold my hand.
 [Verse] 
CFBb Let me travel in the light divine, That I may see the blessed way.
FC Keep me that I may be wholly Thine, And sing 'Re-demption's Songs some day.
FBbF I will be a soldier brave and true, And ever firmly take a stand.
FBbFF As I onward go and daily meet the foe, Blessed Jesus, hold my hand
 [Chorus] 
FBbF Jesus, hold my hand, For I need Thee every hour.
FC Through this pilgrim land, Protect me by Thy power.
FBbF Hear my feeble plea, O Lord, look down on me.
FBbFCF When I kneel in prayer, I hope to meet You there. Blessed Jesus, hold my hand.
