165. Hold Thou My Hand O Savior

Hold thou my hand, O Savior, hold thou my hand; firm on the rock eternal help me to stand.  There, in thy strength abiding,  there, in thy love confiding, Lord, in thy mercy hiding, safe I shall be.

2.

Hold thou my hand, O Savior, keep thou my soul, when o'er a troubled ocean storm billows roll.  Lead thou the way before me, O let my faith adore thee, then, with thy banner o'er me, safe I shall be.

3.

Hold thou my hand, O Savior, till life is past, into the port of glory bring me at last.  There, at the peaceful river where parting cometh never, with thy redeemed forever safe I shall be.
