In the Secret Place

In the Secret Place

In the secret place
That’s where I find you
Just you and me
Talking face to face.
In the secret place
I don’t have to be someone else
I can come as I am
You’ll take me just the same.
In the secret place
I poured out my tears and fears
There’s nothing I can hide from you
You knew everything from the start.
In the secret place
There’s no other place I’d rather be
In those still and quiet moments
That’s where I learn more of you.
Deny me not
In the secret place
Oh…my Lord and Saviour
How I long to live in your presence,
In the secret place.
