WITHIN HIS SECRET PLACE I HIDE
1. Within His
secret place I hide,
Under His shadow I
abide,
For by His blood
I've entered in,
Heaven is bowed,
glory is seen;
His royal train
o'er me is spread,
My heart exults a
new song glad.
Refrain
O Lord, I know I'm
tasting heaven here,
No other longing do
I now hold dear,
Love like sea
billows roll flooding over my soul.
Yes, Lord, I know
in heav'n I'm dwelling here.
2. Exalted on the
throne of grace,
He bids me gaze
upon His face.
His train like
living water flows,
Giving me shelter
and repose.
The oil of joy He
e'er bestows;
My soul o'erflows,
my heart extols.
3. His dazzling
glory makes me bow;
His grace has won
my homage now.
I've seen His
kingdom and I shout,
Here, sin and death
are put to rout!
Love, hope e'er
fresh, faith soaring high.
Heaven is bowed -
glory is nigh!
