In the Shadow of His Wings

I meditate on You in the night watches

Because You have been my help.

Therefore, in the shadow of Your wings I will rejoice.

My soul follows close behind You;

Your right hand upholds me.  Ps. 63:6-8

I slide underneath the blankets

And turn out the light

Another day has passed

Ushered away by the night

I will think of You Lord

And how good You’ve been

In Your grace and faithfulness

You’ve blessed me again

You have been my help

Throughout another day

I have such peace in knowing

That You’ll never go away

You uphold me when I stumble

And forgive me when I do

It’s no mystery or puzzle

That my heart belongs to You

I meditate on Your forever love

And my soul rejoices and sings

As I lay me down to sleep

Underneath Your mighty wings
