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
Over the fields of glory,
Over the jasper sea.Refrain:
Safe in the arms of Jesus,
Safe on His gentle breast;
There by His love o′ershaded,
Sweetly my soul shall rest.Safe in the arms of Jesus,
Safe from corroding care,
Safe from the world's temptations;
Sin cannot harm me there.
Free from the blight of sorrow,
Free from my doubts and fears;
Only a few more tears! Jesus, my heart's dear Refuge,
Here let me wait with patience,
Wait till the night is o′er;
Wait till I see the morning
