The ToneWay® Project: helping people play music

Hold to God's Unchanging Hand [core]

Time is filled with swift transition
Naught of earth unmoved can 5 stand
1 Build your hopes on things eternal
Hold to 5 God's unchanging 1 hand

Chorus
Hold (to his hand) to God's unchanging hand
Hold (to his hand) to 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

Covet not this world's vain riches
That so rapidly decay
Seek to gain the Heavenly treasures
They will never pass away

When your journey is completed
If to God you have been true
Fair and bright your home in glory
Your enraptured soul will view
