1 Happy in Jesus’ love, I’m abiding,
Sheltered within the fold all the day,
Happy in Jesus’ love, safely hiding,
Under His wings I’ll work, watch, and pray.

Refrain:
Hiding, Hiding,
Under His wings I’ll work, watch and pray,
Hiding, safely hiding,
And walking by faith the King’s highway.

2 Sheltered within the fold, safely resting,
There on His breast sweet comfort receive,
Knowing full well that I Heav’ns richest blessing,
Cometh to all who trust and believe. [Refrain]

3 Happy in Jesus’ love, trusting, knowing,
Filled with a hope that Faith gives to me,
Soon I will be with Jesus forever
Chanting the song of Heav’ns victory. [Refrain]
