Representative Text

1. Hide me, O my Savior, hide me,
Let me lean upon Thy breast;
I am weary, heavy laden,
And I come to Thee for rest.

Refrain
Hide me, O my Savior, hide me,
I am coming home to Thee;
Let me feel Thine arms around me,
Let me now Thy glory see.

2. Hide me, O my Savior, hide me,
I am coming home at last;
Just a few more years of struggle,
Then life’s storms will all be past. [Refrain]

3. Hide me, O my Savior, hide me,
Till I reach that golden shore,
There to dwell in Thy dear presence,
Will be joy forevermore. [Refrain]
