Safe in the arms of Jesus

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 strong to me

Over the fields of glory

Over the jasper sea

Safe in the arms of Jesus

Safe on His gentle breast

There by His love o’er shaded

Sweetly my soul shall rest

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 fear

Only a few more trials

Only a few more tears

Safe in the arms of Jesus

Safe on His gentle breast

There by His love o’er shaded

Sweetly my soul shall rest

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

Safe in the arms of Jesus

Safe on His gentle breast

There by His love o’er shaded

Sweetly my soul shall rest
