The Hiding Place

“Keep me as the apple of the eye; Hide me in the shadow of Thy wings.” Psalm 17:8

“In a time of trouble, in a time forlorn,
There is a hiding place where hope is born.
There is a hiding place, a strong protective space,
where God provides the grace to persevere;
For nothing can remove us from the Father’s love,
Tho’ all may change, yet nothing chances here.
In a time of sorrow, in a time of grief,
There is a hiding place to give relief.

In a time of danger, when our faith is proved,
There is a hiding place where we are loved.
There is a hiding place, a strong protective space,
where God provides the grace to persevere;
For nothing can remove us from the Father’s love
Tho’ all may change, yet nothing changes here.
In a time of weakness, in a time of fear,
There is a hiding place where God is near.”
