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
Born in a song 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.

(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.)

Safe in the arms of Jesus
Safe on his gentle breast
There by his love o'er shaded sweetly
My soul shall rest...
