Hymns of the Lutheran Church

70 There is a safe and secret place

1 There is a safe and secret place Beneath the wings divine, Reserved for all the heirs of grace; O be that refuge mine! 2 The least and feeblest there may bide Uninjured and unawed; While thousands fall on every side, He rests secure in God. 3 He feeds in pastures large and fair Of love and truth divine; O child of God, O glory's heir, How rich a lot is thine! 4 A hand almighty to defend, An ear for every call, An honored place, a peaceful end, And heaven to crown it all!
