When the way gets weary
You feel all alone
Hold the hand of Jesus
Your troubles will be gone
When tears fill your eyes 
You cry in despair
Hold the hand of Jesus
He will be there

**************

When there's a test at school
You've  studied all you can
Bow you head in prayer
Hold on to Jesus's hand
When a friend has betrayed you
You feel hurt and cast away
Hold on Jesus's hand
He will gently pave the way

**************

When trials and temptations
Seem more than you can bear
Hold on to Jesus's hand
He will lift your every care
When your cross gets heavy
And the way seems so long
Hold tight to Jesus's hand
His strength will make you strong
