Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
A little song God gave me, you can sing it all alone in your quiet time.
You gotta understand, God is closer than you think, He is closer than you believe.
Sometime you feel like God has forgotten about you
And your all alone wondering what to do
The pressure is on and the pain is real
Wondering where is God and does he hear your prayer
Be encouraged and know
Help is on the way
Just keep waiting, you're not forsaken
He's never too far away
He's in the secret place
Sometime you feel like God has forgotten about you
And your all alone wondering what to do
The pressure is on and the pain is real
Wondering where is God and does he hear your prayer
Be encouraged and know
Help is on the way
Just keep waiting, you're not forsaken
He's never too far away
[x4]
Hold your head high, you're under the shadow of the almighty God
It is where he dwells in the secret place just you and God
[repeats]
(You can find safety there, you can find security there...
You might feel discouraged, you may have been crying out for the Lord
But you're under the shadow of the almighty God, it is where he dwells...)
