He Shall Cover Thee

Verse 1

He shall cover thee here with His feathers, And under His wings shalt thou trust; He’ll give thee long life and true pleasure, He keepeth the path of the just.

Chorus

He shall cover thee, He shall cover thee, And under His wings shalt thou trust; He shall cover thee, He shall cover thee, And under His wings shalt thou trust.

Verse 2

Not a fear should creep over our being, For He guardeth well the heart-door, Works all for our good in foreseeing, And thus we have naught to deplore.

Verse 3

Not a dart from the foe can e’er pierce us While hid in our Savior so dear; Then let us be bold and courageous, For in Him there’s nothing to fear.

Verse 4

Not a safer retreat can be offered, God’s word is His power to me, And in it thro’ Christ He has proffered The grace all must have to be free.
