In the sha­dow of His wings
’Tis the rest Je­sus pro­mised, so hap­py and blest,
Oh, be thou not afraid!
Oh, be thou not afraid!
There is rest in Je­sus,
There is rest over there, bless­èd rest ov­er there,
Rest for you, rest for you,
And Je­sus is pass­ing by.
And thy soul shall find re­lief.
How oft­en amid the wild bil­lows

In the heal­ing streams re­fresh­ing,
O hear the Sav­ior gent­ly say;
When the bat­tle work is done;
Over the heart of the mourn­er
