In the Secret
Shane and Caleb Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And in sin and my mother conceive me
Behold, You delight in the truth and the inward me
And You teach me wisdom in the secret heart
And my sins, not far, but right in front of me
Against You and You alone, God, I am guilty
Wash me thoroughly, cleanse me from iniquity
Oh, create in me a clean heart, oh God
Renew a right spirit within me, oh God
Cast me not away from Your presence
Take not Your Holy Spirit
Restore in me the joy of Your salvation
And teach me wisdom in the secret heart
Send me the chief of sinners to proclaim
Come be forgiven the sin, the lamb of God was slain
Open my lips and my mouth will declare Your endless praise
And teach me wisdom in the secret heart
Create in me a clean heart, oh God
Renew a right spirit within me, oh God
Cast me not away from Your presence
Take not Your Holy Spirit
Restore in me the joy of Your salvation
And teach me wisdom in the secret heart
Wisdom in the secret heart
The Lord is gracious and slow to anger
Rich in love, He is good to all
The Lord is gracious and slow to anger
Rich in love, He is good to all
The Lord is gracious and slow to anger
Rich in love, He is good to all
The Lord is gracious and slow to anger
Rich in love, He is good to all
Good to all
Good to all
Good to all
Create in me a clean heart, oh God
Renew a right spirit within me, oh God
Cast me not away from Your presence
Take not Your Holy Spirit
Restore in me the joy of Your salvation
And teach me wisdom in the secret heart
Wisdom in the secret heart
The lyrics of "In the Secret" by Shane and Caleb speak of the struggles of human sin and the desire for God to cleanse and renew the singer's heart. The opening lines acknowledge the universal human condition of sin and imperfection, even from the moment of conception. The singer then looks to God as the source of wisdom and the one who can teach them how to live truthfully and purely from the inside out.
The next stanza expresses the singer's deep sense of guilt and need for cleansing in the sight of God. They acknowledge that their sins are ever before them, and they can only turn to God for forgiveness and restoration. The plea to "create in me a clean heart" and "restore in me the joy of Your salvation" is a cry for God to do the inner work that the singer cannot do on their own.
The final stanza turns from personal confession to a declaration of God's character. The Lord is gracious, slow to anger, and rich in love; these attributes are repeated for emphasis. The singer is reminded that God is good to all, even those who are steeped in sin like the "chief of sinners." The final call to wisdom in the secret heart is a continuation of the opening prayer, seeking to live a transformed life from the inside out.

Pobre Igrid. Un muchacho que a pesar de vivir equivocado senti su dolor. Hizo muy buenos comentarios acerca de como son slgunas personas en realidad aunque todo pareciera que lo culpaba a el. No debio ocultar la nota. Ni mentir sobre la chica. Pero x lo demás tenia razón. Escudriñemos el corazón para no ser hipócritas. No le dejemos todo a Dios. Hagamos nuestra parte sin juzgar brindando ayuda a quien la necesite. No debieron matarlo. Si eran tan profesionales pudo haber estrategia para no hacerlo. Necesitaba ayuda. Madres...la salud mental empieza en casa. Busquen terapias como pareja no se queden donde hay violencia familiar y se excusen x no hacer el cambio con la sonadas frases " lo hago x mis hijos para que no crezcan sin padre" Dejen el apego emocional y amen a sus hijos mas que a ustedes mismas. Sean madres antes que mujer.

La hipocresia siempre va a estar en el ser humano...pero hay diferenciar cuando la persona esta mentalmente destruido...y quiere manipular al mundo a su manera dañando a todo aquel..porque no se deja ayudar....Gracias a Dios no hubo una masacre...rn esa escuela....pobre Ingrid que no pudo hacer su cometido....la ultima palabra la tiene Dios.....de nuestras vidas...hay muchas señales que todos ignoramos por miedo...a lo dice la sociedad...la vida es bella el problema es como la quieras ver y vivir..❤
@omairacoromotoinagarivas4580
El trigo y la cizaña crecer juntas..que quieres ser...queda de tu parte...todos tenemos problemas pero mas facil es la violencia contra otros...eso es un instinto animal....acabar con lo que crees que te amenaza...Le doy gracias A Dios que le da la sabiduria al ser humano para discernir entre lo bueno y lo malo..
