Under His Wings

207

W. O. Cushing

Ira D. Sankey

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 a bide forever.(Last verse: Amen.)
   
2. Under his wings, what a refuge in sorrow!
   How the heart yearningly turns to his rest!
   Often when earth has no balm for my healing,
   There I find comfort, and there I am blest.
   Refrain
   
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.
   Refrain
