Spirit of the Psalms
Psalm 91 (song 2)
Henry Francis Lyte
There is a safe and secret place
Beneath the wings divine,
Reserved for all the heirs of grace,
Oh! be that refuge mine!
2 The least, the feeblest there may hide
Uninjured and unawed;
While thousands fall on every side,
He rests secure in God.
3 The angels watch him on his way,
And aid with friendly arm;
And Satan, roaring for his prey,
May hate, but cannot harm.
4 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!
5 A hand almighty to defend,
An ear for every call,
An honour'd life, a peaceful end,
And heaven to crown it all!
Henry Francis Lyte, 1834.
