Sunday Hymn: He Will Hold Me Fast

When I fear my faith will fail
Christ will hold me fast
When the tempter would prevail
He will hold me fast

I could never keep my hold

Through life’s fearful path
For my love is often cold
He must hold me fast

Refrain

He will hold me fast
He will hold me fast
For my Saviour loves me so
He will hold me fast

Those He saves are His delight
Christ will hold me fast
Precious in His holy sight
He will hold me fast

He’ll not let my soul be lost

His promises shall last
Bought by Him at such a cost
He will hold me fast

Refrain

For my life He bled and died
Christ will hold me fast
Justice has been satisfied
He will hold me fast

Raised with Him to endless life

He will hold me fast
‘Til our faith is turned to sight
When He comes at last!

Refrain
