Lord Hide me under the shadow Of the Almighty Hide me in the cleft of the Rock The Rock that is higher than I Hide me that it may be all of you Your Spirit, your grace, your love All of you and none of me In me dwells no good thing The flesh is exceedingly corrupt The self, full of pride and envy and greed Unless I hide under your shadow I will fail and I will fall But if I hide under your shadow Your light, your life, your love Will come to redeem the world Christ be my life Christ be my love Christ be my all in all For I am dead And my life is hid with Christ in God My life behind the Cross My life behind the agony Of one who suffered, bled, and died For me Hide me Lord And I shall remain hidden And when you appear I shall appear with you in glory But for now I remain hidden But for now I remain dead But for now All of you and none of me As I hide under the shadow Of the Almighty Hide me Lord I give myself to you Amen |
