In His Loving Arms
God holds us
in His loving arms,
Shielding us from the tempter’s charms;
Teaching us to deny worldly lusts,
As we yield to Him, and fully trust.
In His mighty, arms we rest,
Troubled on every side,
Yet not distressed;
Perplexed, but not in despair,
For we’re safely sheltered
In His tender care.
Persecuted, but not forsaken,
Though the foundations
all around are shaken.
Our Lord protects us
From all alarms,
As He holds us securely
In His Loving Arms.
"For Thou hast been a shelter for me,
and a strong tower from the enemy."
(Ps. 61:3)
