When the storms of life are raging
Tempests wild on sea and land
I will seek a place of refuge
In the shadow of God’s hand.
He will hide me
Where no harm can e’er betide me;
safely hide me
In the shadow of His hand.
Tho’ He may send some affliction
’Twill but make me long for home;
For in love and not in anger
All His chastenings will come.
Enemies may strive to injure
Satan all his arts employ;
He will turn what seems to harm me
Into everlasting joy.
So
while here the cross I’m bearing
Meeting storms and billows wild
Jesus for my soul is caring
Naught can harm His Father’s child.
