My Hiding Place

Psalm 137
Psalm 137 (Photo credit: Mouse)

Whenever things get really hard for me to deal with, I tend to hide from the world. Lately, I’ve been overwhelmed by the things in my life that are hard for me to deal with. However, today I’ve been blessed with a resting peace, and it can only be described as a peace that surpasses all understanding. Hopefully, things will calm down soon, and I will have some peace around me, to go along with the peace I feel in my heart today. In the meantime, I’ve attached a video of John Michael Talbot‘s song that I’ve been listening to since I was a young girl. It’s music soothes my troubled soul.

John Michael Talbot – Hiding Place 

Song lyrics to The Hiding Place:
You are my hiding place, O Lord
You saved me in my distress
You are my hid-ing place
You save me from distress
Y-o-u surround my soul
With cries of deliverance
2.Let every good man pray to you
In his hour of need
Flood wa-ters may reach high
But him they shall not reach
Let every good man pray
In his hour of need

CH: You are my hiding place, O Lord
You gaze into the se-crets of my soul
3.A hidden secret wastes my frame
I groan through the night and cry
Through the day
I will confess my sin
My guilt I will not hide
I will confess my pride
And God will forgive

fin: You are my Hiding place, O Lord 

— Bird

      • Are you familiar with the Voice of Truth by Casting Crowns? It is one of the songs that I go to when I need to be reminded in difficult times, that God’s voice is the only one that I need to hear. I posted it a while back —

        God Bless
