When the storms of life surround me
When the skies turn gray
When my heart feels lost and lonely
And I'm so afraid

I will lay me down beneath that old magnolia tree
Safely sheltered in the arms of the One who hideth me

Long and rough, my road has been
Companions have been few
But, ne'er a storm can overcome
The sweet soft voice of you

I will lay me down beneath that old magnolia tree
Safely sheltered in the arms of the One who hideth me

When my life is wrought with shadows
When the world turns dark
When my time on Earth is ending
I'll know where you are

I will lay me down beneath that old magnolia tree
Safely sheltered in the arms of the One who hideth me
Safely sheltered in the arms of the One who hideth me
You're the one who hideth me
