In the hollow of His hand He will hide me
When doubt and sin draw near
Though no earthly friend may walk beside me
I rest secure from fear.
I know whate’er betide me
His hand will safely guide me
His love will ever hide me
In the hollow of His hand.
In the hollow of His hand He will hide me
When the storm is on the deep
And I know whatever may betide me
His vigil He will keep.
In the hollow of His hand He will hide me
When the storms of life sweep by
To the harbor safe He will guide me
Where His blessèd islands lie.
