This hymn has such an amazingly beautiful melody in the pentatonic scale. The message of this hymn is also amazing – Christ will hold us fast (Jn 6:39, Jn 10:28)!
Lyrics: Ada R. Habershon
Music: Robert Harkness
When I fear my faith will fail,
Christ will hold me fast;
When the tempter would prevail,
He can hold me fast.
Refrain:
He will hold me fast,
He will hold me fast;
For my Savior loves me so,
He will hold me fast.
I could never keep my hold,
He will hold me fast;
For my love is often cold,
He must hold me fast.
I am precious in His sight,
He will hold me fast;
Those He saves are His delight.
He will hold me fast.
He’ll not let my soul be lost,
Christ will hold me fast;
Bought by Him at such a cost,
He will hold me fast.
