Author: Carolina Sandell Berg, 1832-1903; Ernest W. Olson, 1870-1958Hymnal: Lift Up Your Hearts #23 (2013)Meter: 8.8.8.8Topics: SorrowLyrics: 1 Children of the heavenly Father
safely in his bosom gather;
nestling bird nor star in heaven
such a refuge e’er was given.
2 God his own shall tend and nourish;
in his holy courts they flourish.
From all evil powers he spares them;
in his mighty arms he bears them.
3 Neither life nor death shall ever
from the Lord his children sever;
for to them his grace revealing,
he turns sorrow into healing.
4 God has given, he has taken,
but his children ne’er forsaken;
his the loving purpose solely
to preserve them pure and holy. Scripture: Job 1:21Languages: EnglishTune Title: TRYGGARE KAN INGEN VARA
