<p>Oh, spirit, o&#8217;erwhelmed by thy failures and fears,<br>
Look up to thy Lord, though with trembling and tears;<br>
Weak Faith, to thy call seem the heav&#8217;ns only dumb?<br>
To thee is the message, &#8220;Hold fast till I come.&#8221;</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p class="refrain">Hold fast till I come, hold fast till I come,<br>
A bright crown awaits thee; Hold fast till I come.</p>
<p>Hold fast when the world would allure thee to sin;<br>
Hold fast when the tempter assails from within;<br>
In sunshine or sadness, in gain or in loss,<br>
To falter were madness; oh, cling to the cross.</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p>Thy Savior is coming in tenderest love,<br>
To make up His jewels and bear them above:<br>
Oh, child, in thine anguish, despairing or dumb,<br>
Remember the message, &#8220;Hold fast till I come.&#8221;<br>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
