On Joyful Wing ‎#58

58. The Bosom of My Saviour

In the bosom of my Saviour;
Where my sins I tell, and my tears I shed,
In the bosom of my Saviour.

Refrain:
‘Neath his shadow safe he hides me,
All things needful he provides me,
Precious gifts of grace divides me,
In the bosom of my Saviour. [Refrain]

2 I have found a place for my broken heart,
In the bosom of my Saviour;
When I see the things I have loved depart,
In the bosom of my Saviour. [Refrain]

3 I have found a place where I fain would lie,
In the bosom of my Saviour,
When my work is done, and I come to die,
In the bosom of my Saviour. [Refrain]
