1 I am safe, whatever may betide me;
I am safe, who ever may deride me;
I am safe, as long as I confide me
In the hollow of God’s hand.

Chorus:
In the hollow, hollow of his hand!
In the hollow, hollow of his hand!
I am safe, while God himself doth hold me
In the hollow of his hand.

2 What tho’ fierce the stormy blasts roar round me;
What tho’ sore life’s trials oft confound me;
I am safe, for nought of ill can wound me
In the hollow of God’s hand. [Chorus]

3 Everlasting arms of love enfold me;
Words of peace the voice divine has told me;
I am safe, while God himself doth hold me
In the hollow of his hand. [Chorus]
