Hide the Word
Commissioned Lyrics

are you bothered by temptation
Do you feel troubled by the temptation in your life?

that the tempter brings your way?
Are you struggling with the sinful things that are tempting you?

is the threat of losing fellowship
Are you worried about losing your relationship with God because of your actions?

staring in your face?
Do you feel the consequences of sin closing in on you?

failures from your yesterdays
Do the mistakes from your past continue to haunt you?

come back to drain your faith
Do your past failures weaken your faith and confidence?

seems there's no one who can help you
Do you feel like there is no one to support you in your struggle?

and your falling from grace.
Do you feel like you are losing God's grace because of your sins?

hey, its like your losing ground you've
It feels like you are losing your footing and control,

fallen down again and will there ever be a day
After yet another relapse, do you wonder if there is hope for you?

that you can say 'I WIN'?
Are you searching for the day when you can triumph over your temptations?

well the time is now and the day is today
Now is the moment and today is the day,

you can finally say:
You can finally declare,

I've had enough of the bitter cup
You are tired of the bitterness and emptiness of sin,

I'm waking up realizing there is power in God's word!
You are awakening to the power of God's word to help you,

hide the word (hide it in my heart)
You want to remember and treasure God's word,

that I might not sin against Thee.
To keep you from sinning against God,

though you try to do your very best
Despite your efforts,

it never works out right
Things never turn out the way you want them to,

every good thing you have longed for
All the things you yearn for,

seems so far out of sight.
Seem unattainable and out of reach,

and though your friends are all around you feel all alone (yes, you do)
Even though you have friends, you still feel lonely and isolated,

and the prayers that you didn't pray
You regret not praying for the things you now need,

don't get you by so
It doesn't help you in your time of need,

when it looks like there can be no hope for you
When you feel like there's no hope for you,

and you're failing in all you say and do.
When you keep making mistakes,

just remember there is power in God's word
Remember about the strength that God's word gives you,

you should listen to the things you've heard!
Listen closely to the lessons you have learned.

there are some things I don't understand
There are some things that are beyond my comprehension,

but through Your word I know I can
However, through God's word, I feel secure and confident,

and if You'd just hide the word.....
If you continue to treasure God's word,

that I might not sin against Thee
It will help you not to sin against God,

Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, Thy word
God's word illuminates my path,

Thy word is a light unto my path, Thy word
God's word shows me the way forward and gives me clarity.
