Author: Mrs. Frank A. Breck Hymnal: The Golden Sheaf #47 (1902) First Line: The billows of Jordan are swelling Refrain First Line: Holding my hand Lyrics: 1 The billows of Jordan are swelling,
And in the dark waters I stand,
But Jesus has promised to keep me,
And Jesus is holding my hand.
Refrain:
Holding my hand,
Holding my hand;
Yes, Jesus has promised to keep me,
And safe on that promise I stand.
2 I fear not the valley of shadows,
For Jesus my Comforter is,
And I shall go home on the promise,
For there is no promise like his. [Refrain]
3 O, I will go home on the promise,
The promise so sure and so strong;
I know it will carry me over
To gladness and glory and song. [Refrain]
