IN MY PLACE

    

 

IN MY PLACE

    

Within my finite but private world,

Inside my most cluttered-filled mind,

I withdraw there morning and night,

In hopes of my precious Lord, to find!

 

 

It's there where I can seek comfort,

It's there where my Father can hear,

Where I, in faith, can sincerely ask,

For Him to remove all doubt and fear.

 

 

It's there where I can tell Him,

Of the gratefulness in my heart,

For all the generous blessings He gives,

And the peacefulness He imparts!

 

 

It's there that I can humble myself,

And confess my many faults and sins,

Where I can get total forgiveness,

And be whole and pure once again!

 

In this now serene and solemn place,

I can revere His Most Holy Name,

And praise His awesome greatness,

And His mercy that's always the same.

 

 

It's here that I can tell the secrets,

And petition my Father above,

To help those who have confided in me,

With His compassion and tender love.

 

 

When I leave this now blissful place,

Where I communed with the God of us all,

I leave with confidence and peace,

Knowing He is there to catch me if I fall!
