In His Arms Poem by Danny Speicher

Safe and secure within these arms of mine
Safe and secure, holding my neck tightly
And your eyes clenched as light flashes brightly
Oh, little one, in my arms you'll be fine

The world will turn and, my dear, you'll soon find
That words can hurt far more than sticks or stones
And broken hearts ache more than broken bones
But, little one, in my arms you'll be fine

But, if the day comes when my arms fail you
And fade away just as all arms soon do
I pray that you'll find arms greater than mine
And, dear, in His arms, you will be just fine

And His arms are bigger than your sorrows
And His arms, they will never let you down
In His arms you can take on tomorrow
As you learn He will always be around

So, if the day comes when my arms fail you
And fade away just as all arms soon do
I pray that you'll find arms greater than mine
And, dear, in His arms, you will be just fine
