Purpose to be hidden

Purpose to be hidden

by Joel Howard

Lost in love, remind me to come back here

Help me reserve myself for You

I've decided to live for this place

lowly but rightly hidden in You

Have I a friend, a lover so true

receives me whenever I come?

Jesus fits all I desire

loves me the way that I am

Remind me when worldly lusts overwhelm

that there is no love that is so true

I purpose to hide all that I am

ever so freely in You

Investing my best for Your righteousness

scorned by the world but made new

I purpose to live hidden within

Your sacred and beautiful wounds
