Full Lyrics
The night comes on, my weary eyelids close;
The time draws near when I must seek repose.
I kneel to Thee, O Father of us all.
And pray that Thou wilt hear my pleading call.
Hold Thou my hand, dear Lord,
Hold Thou my hand;
I do not ask to see, or understand;
Only that Thou wilt be
Constantly near me,
Hold Thou my hand, dear Lord,
Holding my hand.
My life goes on; some days are good, some ill;
O Father, let Thy loving presence fill
Day and night;
O hold me so I cannot fall,
For Thou art Life and Strength, and All in All.
Hold Thou my hand, dear Lord,
Hold Thou my hand;
And when temptations come,
Help me to stand.
Constantly, constantly near thee,
All shall be well with me,
Holding, holding Thy hand dear Lord,
Holding Thy hand.
