Hidden (Spoken)

It is here I have found refuge
It is here I have found the burdens
I was carrying were too heavy for me
It is here I find Your yoke to be oh so light
I am finding rest
Rest for my soul
I am learning to be still
And know You are God

I am learning a lifestyle of hiddenness
Abiding in the One who hides me
Under the shadow of His wings
His name has always been
The name above every other name
And now I know for myself His name
To truly be above all others
I run to the strong tower and find safety
My fears vanish and my foes vanquished
It is here I understand
True blessing and true riches
It is here that I hear Him say to me
I am your reward
You're exceedingly great reward
I am
The Great I Am has spoken
And shown me this is success
In the fullest meaning.

I am abiding in the One
Who holds the whole universe in His hands
What can man do to me
If God is for me who could ever be against me
And I am wrapped in the arms of my Father
The kindest embrace I've ever known
The most loving place
Peace that passes understanding
My heart is flooded with His goodness
He has always been faithful
And now I have eyes to see
His faithfulness in every direction
I am surrounded and lifted
To new heights of trust
Hope abounds as I remember all He has done
Faith rises within me crying out
Yes Lord I believe You are always good
Thankfulness overflows in the hidden place
The life of abiding in Him
Is a life of continual thanksgiving

Thank you Lord
Thank you for all You are
Thank you for all You've done
And all You're doing
Thank You for bringing me into the secret place
And teaching me how to live here
And abide here moment by moment
Night and day
Always in Your presence

Living with an awareness
A continual giving of my attention
A focused heart living in adoration
I'm finding joy in You and in being Yours
The daily simple ways of life
Have become delightful with You
You surprise me by the way
You reveal yourself to me every single day
