I Will Go, if My Father Holds My Hand by Charles Albert Tindley — Lyrics
1. When the pathway of duty seems with danger filled,

Whole I see the cross uplifted, and I hear the King’s command,
I will go, if my Father holds my hand.
Chorus
I will go, I will go,
Though the mountains are high and the valleys low,
