Hiiden in His Name

 

It's been a long and rugged road

And I've shed so many skins

The rocks and ruts that you've prepared

Have stripped away my sins.

 

You'll never know God is all you need

Tiill God is all you've got

You'll never know you need to be freed

If you've let loose of your lot.

 

Clean before the living God

An empty hollow in my hands

Bankrupted and void

No place to even stand

 

Devastated by who I've become

Since He stripped me of my shame

And now he sees me naked

Since I'm hidden in His name.

 

Clothed with the very son of God

With Christ in God I'm hid

That place where He delights in

Is the place where I am bid.

 

A place where He delights in me

Since I am in His son

He sings and dances over me

This devastated one.

 

Devastated by who I've become

Since He stripped me of my shame

And now he sees me naked

Since I'm hidden in His name.

 

Zephaniah 3:14-20
