Forever Hold My Hand
My life is Yours, my righteous King
Take all of me today
For there is not a single thing
That I would keep away
To You my heart surrenders, El
Your love has made me whole
Your grace is like a ceaseless well
That satisfies my soul
In wartime, I will fight for You
And do what You command
But in the fight, I ask You to
Forever hold my hand
Your people are my people , I
Will go where’er You go
For death can’t break our union. Why?
Because You love me so
Yes, I shall choose to follow You
For You have chosen me
I choose to trek the deserts too
If You shall call for me
What lies ahead, I never know
But as we walk the land
I ask of You, where’er we go
Forever hold my hand
I know that it is often harsh
As through this swamp we tread
I only see the sticky marsh
But You can see ahead
And when in life I have a way
To reach a peaceful land
But You declare that You will stay
In lands of desert sand
Then I would choose with You to stay
In lands of desert sand
Your presence guides me, day by day
Forever hold my hand
Your love is like a fountain and
A constant, healing flow
When walking through the arid land
Your blessings You will show
You shelter me amidst the rain
You guard me in the night
Your voice is comfort in the pain
Your presence is my light
So lead me to the wilderness
To any barren land
Whatever comes, I ask You this:
Forever hold my hand
