1 Time is filled with swift transition; naught of earth unmoved can stand. Build your hopes on things eternal. Hold to God’s unchanging hand.
[Chorus]
Hold to His hand, God’s unchanging hand (x2)
Build your hopes on things eternal. Hold to God’s unchanging hand.
2 Trust in Him who will not leave you; whatsoever years may bring. If by earthly friends forsaken still more closely to Him cling.
[Chorus]
3 Covet not this world’s vain riches that so rapidly decay. Seek to gain the heavenly treasures that will never pass away
[Chorus]
4 When your journey is completed, if to God you have been true. Fair and bright the home in glory your enraptured soul will view [Chorus]
