Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

Time is filled with swift transition

Naught of earth unmoved can stand

Build your hopes on things eternal

Hold to God?s unchanging hand


Hold to His hand, God?s unchanging hand

Hold to His hand, God?s unchanging hand

Build your hopes on things eternal

Hold to God?s unchanging hand


Trust in Him who will not leave you

Whatsoever years may bring

If by earthly friends forsaken,

Still more closely to Him cling


Hold to His hand, God?s unchanging hand

Hold to His hand, God?s unchanging hand

Build your hopes on things eternal

Hold to God?s unchanging hand


Covet not this world?s vain riches

That so rapidly decay

Seek to gain the heav?nly treasures

They are never gonna pass away


Hold to His hand, God?s unchanging hand

Hold to His hand, God?s unchanging hand

Build your hopes on things eternal

Hold to God?s unchanging hand

Hold to God?s unchanging hand

Hold to God?s unchanging hand
