<p>As the bird flies home to its parent nest,<br>
|
|
When the hunter seeks his prey,<br>
|
|
O child of God, to thy Father haste,<br>
|
|
From the tempter’s snare away.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Under His wings thy defense shall be,<br>
|
|
He with His feathers shall cover thee,<br>
|
|
Cover thee, cover thee,<br>
|
|
He with His feathers will cover thee.</p>
|
|
<p>When the winds are cold, and the days are long,<br>
|
|
And thy soul from care would hide,<br>
|
|
Fly back, fly back, to thy Father then,<br>
|
|
And beneath His wings abide.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p>Oh, the tranquil joy of that dear retreat,<br>
|
|
Where the Savior bids thee rest,<br>
|
|
With steadfast hope, and a trusting faith,<br>
|
|
In His love secure and blest.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p>’Tis the Lord thy God that to thee has said,<br>
|
|
He will guide thee with His eye;<br>
|
|
In all thy need, like the weary dove,<br>
|
|
To Thy only refuge fly.</p>
|
|
