In the secret of His presence
How my soul delights to hide!
Oh, how precious are the lessons
Which I learn at Jesus' side!
Earthly cares can never vex me,
Neither trials lay me low;
For when Satan comes to tempt me,
To the secret place I go.

Chorus:
In the secret of His presence
How my soul delights to hide!
Oh, how precious are the lessons
Which I learn at Jesus' side!
Earthly cares can never vex me,
Neither trials lay me low;
For when Satan comes to tempt me,
To the secret place I go.

When my soul is faint and thirsty,
'Neath the shadow of His wing
There is cool and pleasant shelter,
And a fresh and crystal spring;
And my Savior rests beside me,
As we hold communion sweet;
If I tried, I could not utter
What He says when thus we meet.

Only this I know: I tell Him
All my doubts and griefs and fears;
Oh, how patiently He listens!
And my drooping soul He cheers;
Do you think He ne'er reproves me?
What a false friend He would be,
If He never, never told me
Of the sins which He must see.

Would you like to know the sweetness
Of the secret of the Lord?
Go and hide beneath the shadow;
This shall then be your reward;
And whene'er you leave the silence
Of that happy meeting-place,
By the Spirit bear the image
Of the Master in your face.

Let us exhibit Christ (Hymn 864) - 2022 Northeast College Training

Many weary years I vainly sought a spring 

Drinking at the fountain that never runs dry 

Hymn 322

Drinking at the Fountain!

Thousands of Conversations

To my Lord I will sing, for I’ve received
Endless mercy, love and grace in Jesus my King.
Oh, what love!
Even though undeserved, He gave Himself for me.

	Now I open my heart
	To offer praise to Thee; 
	There is an infinite gratitude 
	In all my heart 
	For all You’ve giv’n to me.

To fulfill all the law, He took my place;
He obeyed, e’en suffering, my sin to erase.
I’m redeemed!
Jesus has satisfied God’s heart, and set me free!

	Now I open my heart
	To offer praise to Thee.
	There is an infinite gratitude
	In all my heart
	For all You’ve done for me.

Wondrous news You’ve revealed—now I can see!
Oh, what grace! Your love divine is flowing in me!
Oh! That gaze!
Eyes full of tenderness! Beholding face to face,

	Now I open my heart
	To offer praise to Thee.
	There is an infinite gratitude
	In all my heart
	For all You’ve shown to me.

Riven veil—living way thus He affords.
He arose, the work completed! Oh, praise the Lord!
Oh! What peace!
Now I can boldly come into the holiest place!

	Now I open my heart
	To offer praise to Thee.
	Your name is infinite plenitude!
	Oh, Jesus Lord!
	You’re everything to me!

Infinite Gratitude

Christ has come to be life

1. Recall how David swore,
"I'll not come into my house,
Nor go up to my bed,
Give slumber to mine eyelids, 
Until I find a place for Thee, 
A place, O Lord, for Thee.”
Our mighty God desires a home 
Where all His own may come.

2. How blinded we have been,
Shut in with what concerns us;
While God's house lieth waste-
Lord, break through, overturn us;
We'll go up to the mountain, 
Bring wood and build the house;
We'll never say, "Another day!" 
It's time! We'll come and build!

3.O Lord, against these days, 
Inspire some for Your building, 
Just as in David's day-
A remnant who are willing 
To come and work in Your house,
Oh, what a blessed charge!
Your heart's desire, is our desire—
We come, O Lord, to build.
 
4. Within those whom You'd call
Put such a restless caring 
For building to give all-
These times are for preparing;
The gates of hell cannot prevail
Against the builded Church!
The hours are few, the builders too—
Lord, build, O build in us!

(Repeat the last four lines)
