Safe in the Arms of Jesus
"Underneath are the everlasting arms." - Deut 33:27
VERSE 1
Safe in the arms of Jesus,
Safe on His gentle breast,
There by His love o'er shaded,
Sweetly my soul shall rest,
Hark! 'tis the voice of angels,
Borne in a song to me,
Over the fields of glory,
Over the jasper sea.
CHORUS
Safe in the arms of Jesus,
Safe on His guide breast,
There by His love o'er shaded,
Sweetly my soul shall 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!
CHORUS
Safe in the arms of Jesus,
Safe on His guide breast,
There by His love o'er shaded,
Sweetly my soul shall rest.
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.
CHORUS
Safe in the arms of Jesus,
Safe on His guide breast,
There by His love o'er shaded,
Sweetly my soul shall rest.
