Under His Wings

Richard Groff 1957 (Pottstown, Pa.)



Any voice that blocks out Yours
Keeps me from seeing what’s in store
So, as I walk with You today
Keep all those voices far away

The love we have should not be split
By those who seek to hinder it
But strengthened in the quiet place
Where I can hide to seek Your face

My life is Yours and Yours remains
Alive forever and unchanged
The stars are shining in the sky
Proclaiming we will never die
