Christ in Song 723
Safe Within the Veil
1Lost a-night! to hun-ter we rest, For the life of de-fense sure;
O we wait and we watch and we trust, And the strong-hold se-cure.
We have en-tered the ho-ly place, We have passed with-in the veil;
And we rest in our Sav-ior's grace, Till the morn-ing light shall break.
RefrainSafe with-in the veil, safe with-in the veil,
We are safe with-in the veil.
Safe with-in the veil, safe with-in the veil,
We are safe with-in the veil.
2And we try our we-love bless-ing, When we trust but-ter foe our rest;
But the cleans-ing blood of Je-sus, It can make our spir-it blest.
We have en-tered the ho-ly place, We have passed with-in the veil;
And we rest in our Sav-ior's grace, Till the morn-ing light shall break.
3Death and doom I'll fear no more, Since we trust to that blessed hope;
And our souls shall tri-umph sure, When the way of peace we know.
We have en-tered the ho-ly place, We have passed with-in the veil;
And we rest in our Sav-ior's grace, Till the morn-ing light shall break.
