Songs of Faith and Hope Number 2 ‎#92

92. Under His Wings

1 A wonderful promise God’s given,
What joy to the Christian it brings;
That all who are striving for heaven
Find refuge under His wings.

Refrain:
Under His wings abiding,
Under His wings I’m hiding;
He with His mercy covers my soul,
I’m hiding under His wings.

2 How often in dark nights of sorrow
My spirit to Him looks and sings,
Because I find hope for the morrow,
While resting under His wings. [Refrain]

3 And when I have need of refreshing,
He leads me to life-giving springs;
And there I receive a great blessing,
While shielded under His wings. [Refrain]

4 When, like all the ransom’d immortals,
My soul to that City He brings,
I’ll find that those glorious portals
Are entered under His wings. [Refrain]
