In HIS Arms



There is a place I run to when I'm feeling
lost or sad. A place where I've found
comfort through the hard times I've had.
There is a place where I can go with freedom
to be me, and I know I'm accepted for
whatever I may be. There is a place where I
have spent the safest times I've known,
where I can face life as it comes and know
I'm not alone. There is a place I feel
secure and totally at ease. A place that's
in my favorite thoughts and warmest memories.
There is a place where warmth and trust
surround me lovingly. That place is in HIS arms.
