Secret Place / Goodness Of God

(アルバム： Team Night - 2022)

(And) I remember the beginning
When I found the secret place
Don't know why it felt familiar
But I knew it right away
There were times it seemed so simple
And sometimes so unsure
But not a moment was ever wasted
Knelt behind those closed doors

(Sing the secret place)
'Cause the secret place is secret
That's where it gets its name
It's not hiding but it's hidden
Far from all religious games
No it won't bring recognition
Or get called up on a stage
'Cause the melody is sacred
You sing in the secret place

It's an open invitation
No words you have to say
If you want it you can get there
There's a thousand different ways
There's no glory in the method
None are right and none are wrong
You just put your trust in Jesus
And then start to sing along

'Cause just as you are you're welcome
There's no part you have to play
Doesn't need to be impressive
Couldn't do that anyway
'Cause when it gets too complicated
That melody will fade
But if you take the time to listen
You can hear heaven's refrain

(Whoa oh oh
Whoa oh oh
Hear the sound of the saints)

There'll be days that it feels distant
So far beyond my reach
Like my failures locked the entrance
And my spirit lost the keys
But the beauty of the secret
That I'm so grateful for
Is that Your presence doesn't need me
To kick down an open door

So I'm running to the secret
I'm going there today
Got no reason not to worship
And get undignified again
There's no time for inhibitions
Or to care what people say
I won't waste another minute
Take me to the secret place

(Whoa oh oh
Whoa oh oh
Thank you Lord that your arms are wide open
Oh nothing is wasted in your presence
Nothing is wasted in your presence
No nothing is wasted in your presence
Nothing is wasted in your presence
No nothing is wasted in your presence
Nothing is wasted in your presence
Not a tear not a dream no
No nothing is wasted in your presence
Nothing is wasted in your presence

'Cause Your goodness is running after
It's running after me
Your goodness is running after
It's running after me
With my life laid down
I'm surrendered now
I give You everything
'Cause Your goodness is running after
It's running after me (walk it up now)

'Cause Your goodness is running after
It's running after me
Your goodness is running after
It's running after me
With my life laid down
I'm surrendered now
I give You everything (Oh oh)
'Cause Your goodness is running after
It's running after me

(Come on we sing Your goodness, hey)
'Cause Your goodness is running after
It's running after me (Everywhere I go)
Your goodness is running after
It's running after me
(Oh) With my life laid down
I'm surrendered now
I give You everything
Your goodness is running after
It's running after me

(Come on we sing Your goodness, every voice)
Your goodness is running after
It's running after me
Your goodness is running after
It's running after me
With my life laid down
I'm surrendered now
I give You everything
'Cause Your goodness is running after
It's running after me

(Thank you that you run after me
You run your run you run
You keep running after me
You keep running after me)
