1. When the pathway of duty seems with danger filled, | |||
And the charms of worldly beauty almost win my feeble will, | |||
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, | |||
I will go, I will go, | |||
I will go, if my Father holds my hand. | |||
2. If my Father holds my hand, I can keep the narrow way, | |||
If my Father holds my hand, I will never go astray. | |||
Though oft it is so dark I can hardly find the way, | |||
I will go, if my Father holds my hand.}} | |||

3. Though my strength is weak, by his grace I will seek | |||
To repose like Mary at the Savior’s feet; | |||
Then to climb to the heights of the pure delight, | |||
I will go, if my Father holds my hand. | |||
4. When in the vale of sorrow I am called to go, | |||
And it seems each tomorrow simply brings another woe, | |||
I am satisfied to follow where he leads, this I know, | |||
I will go, if my Father holds my hand. | |||
5. When the awful waves of Jordan beat upon my soul, | |||
In the icy hands of death my limbs are growing cold, | |||
I have nothing then to fear if my Lord is near, | |||
I will go, if my Father holds my hand.}} | |||
