SAFE IN THE ARMS OF JESUS
1. Safe in the arms
of Jesus,
Safe on His gentle
breast,
There by His love
o'er-shaded,
Sweetly my soul
doth rest.
Hark! 'tis a song
of heaven
Borne in a song to
me,
Over the fields of
glory,
Over the jasper
sea.
Refrain
Safe in the arms of
Jesus,
Safe on His gentle
breast,
There by His love
o'er-shaded,
Sweetly my soul
doth 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.
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
with patience,
Wait till the night
is o'er,
Wait till I see the
morning
Break on the golden
shore.
