Children Of The Heavenly Father

Children of the heav’nly Father

Safely in His bosom gather

Nestling bird nor star in Heaven

Such a refuge e’er was given

God, His own doth tend and nourish

In His holy courts they flourish

From all evil things He spares them

In His mighty arms He bears them

Neither life nor death shall ever

From the Lord, His children sever

Unto them His grace He showeth

And their sorrows all He knoweth

Though He giveth or He taketh

God His children ne’er forsaketh

His, the loving purpose solely

To preserve them, pure and holy

Lo, their very hairs He numbers

And no daily care encumbers

Them that share His ev’ry blessing

And His help in woes distressing

Praise the Lord in joyful numbers

Your Protector never slumbers

At the will of your Defender

Ev’ry foeman must surrender

Children of the heav’nly Father

Safely in His bosom gather

Nestling bird nor star in Heaven

Such a refuge e’er was given
