SECRET PLACE

“He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. [2] I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.”   Psalm 91:1-2

—

I have a secret place,

That I alone know.

—

A place I call my own,

Where my Father and I,

Laugh together,

And cry together,

Face to face.

—

It’s a very special place,

I can travel to at will,

Without ever leaving,

The place where I stand.

—

In that secret place,

I see the face of God.

—

Sometimes in a stranger,

Sometimes in the sky,

As I bask in His Holy Creation.

—

My secret place has flowers,

And birds,

And streams,

And fields,

Sweet fragrances of memories,

And music that fills my soul,

Things that bring me closer,

To my Father’s voice.

—

You may sit right near me,

And never see me leave,

But you’ll notice a different glow,

That saturates my spirit,

And lifts me every upward.

—

My secret place can’t be found,

By anybody else.

But yours, my friend,

Waits for you,

Deep within your heart.
