Sheet music

  1. 1When the storms of life are raging,Tempests wild on sea and land,I will seek a place of refuge,In the shadow of God's hand.He will hide me, He will hide me,(He will hide me, He will hide me,)Where no harm can e'er betide me;(Where no harm can)He will hide me, safely hide me,(He will hide me He will hide me)In the shadow of His hand.(In the shadow)
  2. 2Tho' He may send some affliction,'Twill but make me long for home;For in love, and not in anger,All His chastenings will come.He will hide me, He will hide me,(He will hide me, He will hide me,)Where no harm can e'er betide me;(Where no harm can)He will hide me, safely hide me,(He will hide me He will hide me)In the shadow of His hand.(In the shadow)
  3. 3Enemies may strive to injure,Satan all his arts employ;He will turn what seems to harm meInto everlasting joy.He will hide me, He will hide me,(He will hide me, He will hide me,)Where no harm can e'er betide me;(Where no harm can)He will hide me, safely hide me,(He will hide me He will hide me)In the shadow of His hand.(In the shadow)
