In the Arms of Jesus

In the holy arms of Jesus

There is  haven from our fears

And a refuge for the heartaches

That engulf a life in tears

For He loves us, with devotion,

Through all phases of our life -

Though we, oftentimes, deny Him

In our miseries of strife.

He is caring and forgiving

Of our frailties of heart

And the sins of human weakness

We commission and impart,

But His arms are always open -

To endear us in embrace-

When we pray to Him for refuge

and the comforts of His Grace.
