Hold my hand,
As I take my first steps.
Hold my hand,
And keep me from falling.
Hold my hand,
Hold my hand,
For my first day of school.
Hold my hand,
And I won’t feel so small,
Hold my hand.
Hold my hand,
Today’s my first date.
Hold my hand,
And I won’t be so nervous.
Hold my hand.
Hold my hand,
As I walk down the isle.
Hold my hand,
And we will become one.
Hold my hand.
Hold my hand,
While I carry this small person,
Hold my hand,
And I shall bare new life.
Hold my hand.
Hold my hand,
As my life nears it’s end.
Hold my hand,
And I will be comforted.
Hold my hand
Hold my hand
Lord
Hold my hand.

I agree Grace but I don't think he is worth my time to bother.

This:
"hold my hand,i have to pee,hold my hand(weiner)im drunk and cant aim so well.hold my hand,ive gone blind from mastur"
Is in no way funnny or fun. it is disrespectful and rude. And young people should not read this. Maybe if you are have a son or daughter you would understand. Because I know you wouldn't want them read THIS -
Thanks InsideLetOut, I'm glad you liked it. Thanks for taking the time to read it.
-
Thanks V, glad it was able to bring you joy.

Thanks grace for your beautiful comment on my poem. I am really glad you enjoyed it. It was something new I tried and it come out pretty well. As for John I just considered the source, and not let it bother me.
-
Thanks Clovis I am glad you enjoyed it. And I did read the poem you suggested on your home page, I found it interesting as well.
-
John, This comment it compelte rude and not to mention disrespectful. She work hard on that poem and you say those horrible things! I commented truthfully and kindly to one of your poems. Now I wish I had said something rude. Childeren read these poems! As a 31 yo man you should be more aware of them. Do you REALLY think it is APPROPIATE for kids to read such DISGUSTING words? You sick if you do. And rude. I hope one day you grow up and see the error in your ways

That is so cool. At first I thought it was your worldly parents, but after reading it, its the father that will never fail. I love this poem. Its cool how you took this picture, and reflected on your Christianity. I like it alot.

I love this poem so much! I feel everything. You present it beautifully. All I can say is WOW. Simply WOW. You are a fantastic poet and probably a wonderful person. /in response to John's comment. Some people are ingornant and jealous. You should be proud of your work even when it isnt your best. People like that aren't worth the patxh of internet they roam on. Stick up for yourself and your talent. You deserve a good truth comment. Even if they dislike the poem, they shouldn't say such DISGUSTING and DISRESPECTFUL things. Again great poem! Keep up the good work!

uplifting
'isle' = 'aisle'
Jesus holds our hand and you have explained this with real feeling. It also reminded me of my Mother who also held my hand through all those steps...till the end, becasue I held her hand when she went to Jesus.
I like the use of repetition
Your poem has touched my spiritual side. Brings a tear. Thank you. -

This is such a soft and beautiful expression of faith. The words are short and sweet but they carry such weight. I can feel the depth of the faith of the speaker. It is my dearest hope that this is your faith.

"hold my hand and keep my from falling"... possibly "me" from falling? Just thought I would check..
This was like a gentle walk through life and seemed to be with different people at different stages and like the "footprints"... in the end, Ahhhhh, it was the Lord. You did a nice job on this piece and you should certainly be proud of it. Thanks for sharing. -
