Like a bird on the deep, far away from its nest, I had wandered, my Savior, from Thee, But Thy dear loving voice called me home to Thy breast, And I knew there was welcome for me. Refrain Welcome for me, Savior, from Thee; A smile and a welcome for me; Now, like a dove, I rest in Thy love, And find a sweet refuge in Thee. I am safe in the ark; I have folded my wings On the bosom of mercy divine; I am filled with the light, of Thy presence so bright, And the joy that will ever be mine. Refrain I am safe in the ark, and I dread not the storm, Though around me the surges may roll; I will look to the skies, where the day never dies, I will sing of the joy in my soul. Refrain |
