Safe in the arms of Jesus, safe on His gentle breast,
There by His love o¡¦ershaded, 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.
Refrain
Safe in the arms of Jesus, safe on His gentle
breast
There by His love o¡¦ershaded, sweetly my soul shall
rest.
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!
Refrain
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 over;
Wait till I see
the morning break on the golden shore.
Refrain
