Under His Shadow
Frances Ridley Havergal • English
Primary Scripture: Psalm 17:8
Verse 1
Sit down beneath His shadow, And rest with great delight; The faith that now beholds Him Is pledge of future sight.
Verse 2
Our Master's love remember, Exceeding great and free; Lift up thy heart in gladness, For he remembers thee.
Verse 3
Bring every weary burden, Thy sin, thy fear, thy grief; He calls the heavy-laden, And gives them kind relief.
Verse 4
His righteousness all glorious Thy festal robe shall be, And love that passeth knowledge His banner over thee.
Verse 5
A little while, though parted, Remember, wait and love, until He comes in glory, Until we meet above.
