Tune: | [Safe in the arms of Jesus] |
Composer: | W. H. Doane |
1 Safe in the arms of Jesus,
Safe on His gentle breast--
There by His love o'ershaded,
Sweetly my soul shall rest.
Hark! 'tis the voice of angels,
Borne in a song to me,
Over the fields of glory,
Over the jasper sea.
Chorus:
Safe in the arms of Jesus,
Safe on His gentle breast--
There by His love o'ershaded,
Sweetly my soul shall rest.
2 Safe in the arms of Jesus,
Safe from corroding care;
Safe from the world's temptations,
Sin cannot harm me there.
Free from the blight of sorrow,
Free from my doubts and fears;
Only a few more trials,
Only a few more tears. [Chorus]
3 Jesus, my heart's dear refuge,
Jesus has died for me:
Firm on the Rock of Ages,
Ever my trust shall be.
Here let me wait in patience,
Wait till the night is o'er;
Wait till I see the morning
Break on the golden shore. [Chorus]
