Under His wings I am safely abiding

This was one of my Grandfather's favorite hymns. It came to me as I was doing my devotional but after looking through his old hymnals, I couldn't find it. I was beginning to believe I might have the wrong title when I googled it and there were those oh so comforting words.

Woke up this morning with snippets of this almost forgotten hymn running through my mind. Remember my mother singing it in church. Been wrestling with many unanswerable questions, and I think God gave me this memory to remind me that He has everything under control. What comforting words!

I live in Bay Shore and I teach in Brooklyn, NY; so I leave home very early. This morning as I got out of my car after praying all the way to work this tune came to my heart. I sung it for two block while I walked

into my school building and into my classroom. I googled it and was able to sing the whole thing with your piano playing. Thank you for blessing my heart today.

Yesterday I woke up singing "cubrenos, cubrenos, con Tu manto de amor, cubrenos" (cover us with your mantle of love); the first verse I read was Psa. 91:4 NIV: He will cover you with His feathers...and I remembered Jesus weeping over Jerusalem and using the analogy of a hen covering her chicks to protect them. I remember the shrill screech of an eagle as it circled above Grandpa's hens and chickens and the mother hen's loud squacking to gather her chicks under her wings!

As I was about to go into prayer this morning The Lord gave me this song. I haven't sung this song in a long time and could not find it in my hymnal. This the second day the Lord give me an hymn that is not in that book. The other one is Precious Promise God has given and I believe the Lord is speaking to me. Praise God nothing like when the Lord speak to in songs dreams or His word. Thank you so much.

Thank you so much for having these hymns available. Love in Christ Jesus.

In MEMORY of Phyllis who went to be with Jesus today... & my friend Kate, her daughter who's heart is hurting tonight... You are "Under his wings.. "

My husband has Parkinson's and halucinations, I sing this to him every night and it is soooo comforting to him. It helps get him thru the night.

This song came to me today during my devotions. I so wanted to sing it to the Lord but could not pull all the words out of my old mind. Hadn't sung it in so long. Sadly it is not in any of the song books I have. Just needed the words so badly. Thank you for having them on this site.

O how the old songs come back to me as I pray and worship. I am so grateful that they were in my worship life as I grew up.

This is by far the best hymn I have ever heard...Our heavenly Father is truly amazing.

8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.

9 Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:

10 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:

11 For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
