Under His wings I am safely abiding

by William Orcutt Cushing (1823–1902)

Representative text

As printed in The Seventh-day Adventist Hymnal (1985), no. 529.

Verse 1

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.

Refrain

Under His wings, under His wings, Who from His love can sever? Under His wings, my soul shall abide, Safely abide forever.

Verse 2

Under His wings, what a refuge in sorrow! How the heart yearningly turns to its rest! Often when earth has no balm for my healing, There I find comfort, and there I am blest.

Verse 3

Under His wings, O 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.
