Hide Me
09/01/09
George Poulo

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
