In the Hollow of His Hand (Everett)

lyricist: Deloss Everett, 1884
Composer: Willliam Cassell

I am saved in Christ my Sav­ior

And my sins are all for­giv­en;

Now by faith I’m tra­vel­ing on­ward

To my home in yon­der Heav’n.

Earthly cares may oft sur­round me

Trials come on ev­ery hand

But my Sav­ior keeps me saf­ely

In the hol­low of His hand.

And I know

if I am faith­ful

I shall see Him in that land

For His promise is He’ll keep me

In the hol­low of His hand.

I am saved in Christ my Sav­ior;

Tho’ the waves about me roll

I am on the Rock of Ag­es

And He saves my trust­ing soul;

And I know

if I am faith­ful

I shall see Him in that land

For His pro­mise is He’ll keep me

In the hol­low of His hand.

I am saved in Christ my Sav­ior!

Oh

what joy to me is given!

For I’m think­ing of the man­sion

He’s pre­pared for me in Heav­en;

There are ma­ny

ma­ny man­sions

For them in that hap­py land

Who will have the Sav­ior keep them

In the hol­low of His hand.
