Hymn #615

Safe in the Arms of Jesus

Lyrics

Verse 1

Safe in the arms of Jesus,
Safe on His gentle breast —
Here by His love o'ershaded,
Sweetly my soul doth rest.
Hark! 'tis the voice of angels,
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 —
Here by His love o'ershaded,
Sweetly my soul doth rest.

Verse 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.

Verse 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.
