take hold of His hand

take hold of His hand

From a letter written by Jonathan Edwards to Deborah Hatheway (1741):

In all your course, walk with God and follow Christ

as a little, poor, helpless child,

taking hold of Christ’s hand,

keeping your eye

on the mark of the wounds

on his hands

and side,

whence came the blood that cleanses you from sin

and hides your nakedness

under the skirt of the white shining robe

of his righteousness.
