As I travel thru this pilgrim land

1.

As I travel thru this pilgrim land

There is a Friend who walks with me

Lead me safely thru the sinking sand

It is the Christ of Calvary

This would be my pray’r, dear Lord each day

To help me do the best I can

For I need Thy light to guide me day and night

Blessed Jesus hold my hand

Refrain

Blessed Jesus, hold my hand

Yes, I need Thee ev’ry hour

Thru this land, this pilgrim land

By Thy saving pow’r;

Hear my plea, my feeble plea

Lord, dear Lord, look down on me

When I kneel in pray’r

Blessed Jesus hold my hand.

2.

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

3.

When I wander thru the valley dim

Towards the setting of the sun

Lead me safely to a land of rest

If I a crown of life have won

I have put my faith in Thee, dear Lord

That I may reach the golden strand

There’s no other friend on whom I can depend

Blessed Jesus hold my hand

Amen
