Under His Wings

Under His wings I am safely abiding;

  Though the night deepens and tempests are wild,

Still I can trust Him, I know He will keep me;

  He has redeemed me, and I am His child. 

    Under His wings, under His wings,

      Who from His love can sever?

    Under His wings my soul shall abide,

        Safely abide forever. 

Under His wings--what a refuge in sorrow!

  How the heart yearningly turns to His rest!

Often when earth has no balm for my healing,

  There I find comfort, and there I am blessed. 

Under His wings--oh, what precious enjoyment!

  There will I hide till life's trials are o'er;

Sheltered, protected, no evil can harm me;

  Resting in Jesus I'm safe evermore.
