Author: Mrs. E. C. Ellsworth Hymnal: The Gospel Awakening #47 (1888) Refrain First Line: Take my hand, oh, take it Lyrics: 1. Take my hand, dear Father,
Lead me safely through;
For the gate is narrow,
And the way is new.
Chorus:
Take my hand, oh, take it,
Hold me close to Thee;
For with Thee is safety,
Hold then, hold Thou me.
2. Take my hand, dear Father,
Lest I meet a snare,
And my feet should stumble
While I'm unaware. [Chorus]
3. Take my hand, dear Father,
Be my guard and guide;
Nought shall ever harm me,
While I'm near Thy side. [Chorus] Scripture: Isaiah 41:13 Tune Title: [Take my hand, dear Father]
Take My Hand, Dear Father
