Revival Hymns ‎#166

166. There is a safe and secret place

1 There is a safe and secret place,
Beneath the wings divine,
Reserved for all the heirs of grace;
O be that refuge mine!

Refrain:
He that dwelleth in the secret place,
In the secret place of the Most High,
Shall abide in the shadow,
In the shadow of His wings.

2 The least and feeblest there may bide,
Uninjured and unawed;
While thousands fall on every side,
He rests secure in God. [Refrain]

3 He feeds in pastures, large and fair,
Of love and truth divine,
O child of God, O glory’s heir,
How rich a lot is thine! [Refrain]

4 A hand almighty to defend,
An ear for every call,
An honored life, a peaceful end,
And Heaven to crown it all! [Refrain]
