Beautiful Secrets

Richard Groff 1957 (Pottstown, Pa.)

LORD, I love your presence!
When I feel it deep inside.
The love you show me in this world,
No evil force can hide.
You keep it locked up very tight;
You hold me in your hand.
God, show me what my future holds;
And all that we have planned.
I just want to be with you LORD!
And never leave your side;
Your presence is my beauty,
Deep within your cloak I’ll hide.
