SAFE IN HIS ARMS Psalm 23 I was burdened with grief That day in the spring. My heart-strings were broken — I could not sing. I turned in my anguish To God’s holy Word. His comfort I needed — / read with eyes blurred: ‘I’ll walk with you through The dark valley of death; I’ll comfort you, strengthen you While you have breath.” At once I was calm, And I looked up to see The holy Lord Jesus With eyes fixed on me. “I am the Good Shepherd.” He tenderly said, “ The young lamb I loaned you Has left her small bed, “But she’s 8afe in my arms — At peace she doth rest. I lovingly hold her Now, close to my breast. “ The wolf shall not touch her — I’ll keep her from harm: There’s no night in heaven, No cold: she’ll be warm. “Here pastures are green And the waters are still, And lambkins may frolic Each green velvet hill. “ Your dear little lambie — Is so happy here, With nothing to hurt her And nothing to fear; “And you may be sure she Doth eagerly wait To welcome you Home At the bright Golden Gate.” The words of the Shepherd Brought peace to my heart — An indwelling hope That shall never depart. Though the years may be many — By faith I can see My child at the Gate With arms outstretched to me. —Mrs. Floyd Tilson
