(Brumley)

Information:
This gospel song was written by Albert E. Brumley in 1933 and was popular in church services in the 1940s and 1950s. During the Million Dollar Quartet session on December 4, 1956, Elvis sang Blessed Jesus Hold My Hand with Jerry Lee Lewis singing harmony.

Lyrics:

... mm, stepping through the sinking sand

To the cross of Calvary

Mm, let it be my prayer, dear Lord, each day

To help me do the best I can

For there is no friend on whom I can depend

Blessed Jesus, hold my hand.

Blessed Jesus, hold my hand ...

Oh, yes, I need Thee every hour

Through the this pilgrims land

Protect me by Thy saving power

Please, hear my feeble plea

Oh, hoh, Lord, please, tell me

I kneel in prayer, I try to meet You there

Blessed Jesus, hold my hand, hold my hand.
