Hold Fast Till I Come

Sophia T. Griswold • English

Primary Scripture: Revelation 2:25

Verse 1

Oh, spirit, o’erwhelmed by thy failures and fears, Look up to thy Lord, though with trembling and tears; Weak Faith, to thy call seem the heav’ns only dumb? To thee is the message, Hold fast till I come.

Chorus

Hold fast till I come, hold fast till I come, A bright crown awaits thee; Hold fast till I come.

Verse 2

Hold fast when the world would allure thee to sin; Hold fast when the tempter assails from within; In sunshine or sadness, in gain or in loss, To falter were madness; oh, cling to the cross.

Chorus

Hold fast till I come, hold fast till I come, A bright crown awaits thee; Hold fast till I come.

Verse 3

Thy Savior is coming in tenderest love, To make up His jewels and bear them above: Oh, child, in thine anguish, despairing or dumb, Remember the message, Hold fast till I come.

Chorus

Hold fast till I come, hold fast till I come, A bright crown awaits thee; Hold fast till I come.
