In the secret of His presence, How my soul delights to hide! Oh, how precious are the lessons which I learn at Jesus' side! Earthly cares can never vex me, Neither trials lay me low; For when Satan comes to tempt me, To the secret place I go. Would you like to know the sweeetness Of the secret of the Lord? Go and hide beneath His shoadow; This shall then be your reward; And when e'er you leave the silence Of that happy meeting place, You must mind and bear the image Of the Master in your face. |
