Crowning Day No. 3 ‎#16

16. I am Sheltered in Thee

1 I am safe in the Rock that is higher than I;
This my refuge thro’ storms e’er shall be;
Tho’ my frail bark is tossed on the billows’ mad foam,
Yet I’m sheltered forever in Thee.

Refrain:
Sheltered in Thee, sheltered in Thee,
O Thou blest Rock of Ages,
I am sheltered in Thee.

2 I am safe in the Cleft that was riven for me;
From the pow’r of the tempter I’m free;
Tho’ my path way be dark, and the storms sweep the sky,
Yet securely I’m sheltered in Thee. [Refrain]

3 I am safe in the Rock let whatever betide;
Death and hell have no terror to me,
I can walk without fear thro’ the shadowy vale,
For securely I’m sheltered in Thee. [Refrain]
