Forsaken by your fellowman,
Alone with no more strength to stand,
Reach to clasp God’s outstretched Hand.
Hold fast to Him.

When even Christian friends speak doubt,
God has all power; He can rout
The fear within, the foe without.
Hold fast to Him.

Where is the joy that is your might?
Why can you not see the light?
Walk by faith and not by sight.
Hold fast to Him.

God feels your pain; He hears your cry.
He’s promised help; on that rely!
He’s not a man that He should lie.
Hold fast to Him.

In Him is rest and perfect peace,
The power to make all storm winds cease;
His victory brings sweet release.
Hold fast to Him.
