1. The shadow of Thy wings is nigh,
    Thou art my Shepherd, rod and staff,
    Thou leadest me with watchful eye,
    Thou died on my behalf.

           CHORUS

    Thy love enchanteth me,
    Thy love enchanteth me,
    I rest content for Thee I know,
    Thy love enchanteth me.

2. The comfort of Thy dying love,
    Surpasseth that of mortal man,
    Its length, the breadth and the depth and height,
    Thy saints alone can span.

3. When bitter conflicts cross my path,
    Misunderstood by friends held dear,
    Thy Word will guide and bear me through,
    Love casteth out all fear.

4. O, Love that bindeth strong as death
    And keeps me sealed upon Thy heart,
    I’m not ashamed of pilgrim life,
    E’en though my life depart.

5. Were all the world my richest gain,
    I’ll barter not for love divine,
    Though floods may come as mountains high,
    My feet shall ne’er decline.
