Safety in Christ

William Gadsby • English

Primary Scripture: Psalm 66:12

Verse 1

Immortal honours rest on Jesus’ head; My God, my Portion, and my Living Bread; In him I live, upon him cast my care; He saves from death, destruction, and despair.

Verse 2

He is my Refuge in each deep distress; The Lord my strength and glorious righteousness; Through floods and flames he leads me safely on, And daily makes his sovereign goodness known.

Verse 3

My every need he richly will supply; Nor will his mercy ever let me die; In him there dwells a treasure all divine, And matchless grace has made that treasure mine.

Verse 4

O that my soul could love and praise him more, His beauties trace, his majesty adore; Live near his heart, upon his bosom lean; Obey his voice, and all his will esteem.
