Under His Wings 🎵

Last updated: October 30, 2023

One of my favorite songs has always been Under His Wings. I first heard my childhood pastors wife, Marilyn, sing this and the special way she sang it has always stuck with me. I am honored to have a recording of her playing the piano while I sing these beautiful words.

He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.

Psalm 91:4

My way was filled with danger, I felt so alone. The enemy had singled me out to do me wrong. And when he drew near, my heart filled with fear; then I heard someone dear calling me to His side. And I ran under His wings. There He covered me and now I can sing.

And the enemy still looks for me, but what he can’t see is that I’m under my Lords wings, under His wings.

Thunder rolled, dark clouds hung low, I was out in a storm. Shivering in the coldness there, no safe retreat from harm. Then there blew strong winds. Would this be my end? Then I heard my friend calling me to His side, and I ran under his wings. And there, He covered me and now I can sing.

And the storm still rages, but in the Rock of Ages I’m resting warmly, here, under My Lords wings. Under His wings.

Night time came, the shadows fell, I could not find my way. The terrors of the night took hold. How I yearned for break of day. Then he saw my plight and out in the night, He shined His light and called me to His side; and I ran under His wings. There He covered me and now I can sing.

And the night’s still there, but why should I care when I’m made aware that I’m under my Lords wings. Under His wings. Close to His heartbeat and resting so peacefully.

And He bids me hide, always confide, always abide here under His wings.
