HAND IN HAND WITH JESUS

1.    All along the way, pained and sore
       I was lost in sin and woe;
       When I cried to Him and did Him implore,
       Wondrous grace He did to me show.
                    
            CHORUS

       He will never leave me
       Nor will He forsake me;
       He shall ever be with me.
       Though the path be gloomy
       Through the lonesome valley,
       Hand in hand we’ll go and He will guide me.

2.    I was weak and frail; death seemed sure,
       Ailing and forlorn I lay;
       Then I heard, “I bring health and cure;
       I will turn your night into day.”

3.    Ever since the day, Him I found,
       I am happy in His care;
       Now I rest in Him, in His love profound,
       All His wealth and gifts e’er to share.

4.    As my heart is set on His love,
       Earthly things I hate and shun,
       I have fix’d my gaze on the things above;
       Seeing Him my race I would run.

5.    Hid with Christ in God, I do live
       Strengthened by His mighty pow’r;
       When He shall appear, His reward to give,
       I shall be His Bride and co-heir.
