My Hiding Place

A loving word with you, my friend,
This Day of Grace with you must end,
If Christ be not your Hiding Place,
A Holy God you’ll have to face.
But if as Lord you own Him now –
Before His feet you humbly bow,
He’ll keep you in His wondrous grace,
For He will be your Hiding Place.
A time will come when you must meet,
A Holy God, a Judgment Seat,
For all have sinned, His laws defied,
And must you not His wrath abide?
But O! The cross doth make it clear,
That God is Love, you need not fear,
He gave His son to meet your case,
That you might have a Hiding Place.
My sins He bore when on the tree,
My debt He paid in full, for me.
The work is finished, all in grace,
My Saviour, Lord, My Hiding Place.
“God commendeth His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” Romans 5:88But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. (Romans 5:8).
