Under His Shadow

Frances Ridley Havergal

“Under His shadow,” with Christ alone Here, love He whispers in tenderest tone, Treasures unfolding, riches of grace Thus for life's battle my soul doth He brace.

“Under His shadow,” a near page of life. Opens before me, apart from the strife Oh! will Thou show me Master and King How I may glory unto Thee bring!

“Under His shadow” may life be passed Daily and hourly on till the last, Then no more shadows, all shall have fled When we awake like Jesus our Head.
