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