There is a safe and secret place

by Henryf. Lytz (1793–1847)

Representative text

As printed in The Church Hymnal (1941), no. 399 — the newest hymnal carrying it.

Verse 1

There is a safe and secret place Beneath the wings divine, Reserved for all the heirs of grace; O, be that refuge mine!

Verse 2

The least and feeblest there may bide, Uninjured and unawed; While thousands fall on every side, He rests secure in God.

Verse 3

He feeds in pastures large and fair, Of love and truth divine; O child of God, O glory's heir! How rich a lot is thine!

Verse 4

A hand almighty to defend, An ear for every call, An honored life, a peaceful end, And heaven to crown it all.
