Savior, Like A Bird To Thee

Savior, like a bird to Thee,

Weary and wounded my soul would flee;

O let me fold my wings and rest

Peacefully, trustingly, on Thy breast.

Refrain

Like a bird let me fly to Thee,

In Thine arms kindly shelter me;

Then my soul no more shall roam

Far, far away from home.

Savior, Thou my grief hast borne,

Thou hast a balm for the hearts that mourn;

One gentle word, and I shall rest

Hopefully, lovingly, on Thy breast.

Refrain

I was lost till found by Thee;

Thine, blessèd Savior, the glory be;

Gladly I fold my wings and rest,

Lovingly, tenderly, on Thy breast.

Refrain
