Janice Pibworth with the story of the hymn written by Ada Ruth Habershon1 (1861-1918), who died 100 years ago this year
When I fear my faith will fail,
Christ will hold me fast;
When the tempter would prevail,
He can hold me fast.
Refrain:
He will hold me fast,
He will hold me fast;
For my Saviour loves me so,
He will hold me fast.
