New Songs of Pentecost No. 2 ‎#69

69. Sheltered

1 God be with you thro’ the night,
‘Neath the shadow of His wing;
Keep you safe till morning light,
While the angels softly sing.

Refrain:
Sheltered, sheltered, ‘neath His mighty wing,
Sheltered, sheltered, while the angels sing;
Sheltered, Sheltered ‘till the morning light,
God be with you through the night.

2 God be with you thro’ the night,
Wake you to another day;
Guide you thro’ the morning light,
Keep you ever in His way. [Refrain]

3 When death’s night shall hover o’er,
God be with you thro’ the night;
Bear you to the golden shore,
Where there’s everlasting light. [Refrain]
