Safe in the Arms of Jesus - George Beverly Shea

Lyrics: Fanny J. Crosby,   1868 

Music: William H. Doane, 1868

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,

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'ershaded,

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 o'er;

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'ershaded,

Sweetly my soul shall rest.
