Music of my heart - hidden


This song.  The first time I heard it, my soul took a breath.  Often my life is crazy and busy, but I can sit at the feet of Jesus and breath.  I can look at things that seem way to big.  Overwhelming really, but if I know I am in the will of God, I know I am, SAFE.
Most of my life I have not felt safe.  Always scared of something.  But there is something about the Love of God.  A love so strong that I can’t help but feel safe. 
There is a verse, Proverbs 3:5-6
Trust in the Lord with all your heart
    and lean not on your own understanding;
in all your ways submit to him,

    and he will make your paths straight.


When I would worry people would quote that verse to me, and even though I heard the words, they did not penetrate my heart.  And one day, I am not sure when it happened, I came to the point when I believed it. I didn’t just believe in God, I believed Him.
There came a moment when I knew that I could do whatever He asked of me, I just needed to believe it, and believe Him.  Often it seems crazy and nuts, but here I am, I just do what God asks. 

I never know what to say when people ask what is going on?  Sometimes I am just so excited about it all, I want to scream how excited I am.  Like just I was when I first learned about God’s grace.
This song.  My heart.  It’s the words when I don’t have them.

 



There was one when I was young
Who knew my heart
He knew my sorrow
He held my hand
And he lead me to trust him
Now I am hidden
In the safety of your love
I trust your heart and your intentions
Trust you completely
I’m listening intently
You’ll guide me through these many shadows

As I grow
And as I change
May I love you more deeply
I will lean upon your grace
I will reap because your goodness is unending

You are my vision
My reason for living
Your kindness leads me to repentance
I can’t explain it
This sweet assurance

But I’ve never known this kind of friend
I can’t explain it
This sweet assurance
But I’ve never known this kind of friend

The sun, moon, and stars
Shout your name
They give you reverence
And I will do the same
With all my heart I give you glory
The sun, moon, and stars
Shout your name
They give you reverence
And I will do the same
With all my heart I give you glory

I want to seek you first
I want to love you more
I want to give you the honor you deserve
So I bow before you
I am overcome by the beauty of this perfect love

I want to seek you first
I want to love you more
I want to give you the honor you deserve
So I bow before you
I am overcome by the beauty of this perfect love


Now I am hidden
In the safety of your love
I trust your heart and your intentions
Trust you completely
I’m listening intently
You’ll guide me through these many shadows


Now I am hidden
In the safety of your love
I trust your heart and your intentions
Trust you completely
I’m listening intently
You’ll guide me through these many shadows
