Chuck Weyh – The Hiding God lyrics

[Verse 1]
Couldn't find you in a book
Or a hundred other places where I looked
You wouldn't let me off so easiy
You are more than this world can see

[Chorus]
Verily, thou art a God which hides thyself away
Of you is written, sung and taught
God of Israel you are

[Verse 2]
And all the stories that I'd heard
Never described to me just how you were
Doctrines and fables fall away
When I see you in the light of day

[Chorus]
Verily, thou art a God which hides thyself away
Of you is written, sung and taught
God of Israel you are

[Verse 3]
On the clouds of glory come!
So that the world will know you are the son
We'll bow before your light and say
"The mystery has fled away"

[Intermezzo]
When the sun comes, they told me
When the sun comes, we shall see
Though our house be left unto us desolate
And we will not see Him again until we say...

"Save us today—give us Your light"
(Psalm118: 25-27 / Matt 23)

The Lion of Judah returns to His lair, till we say
"Your judgement is fair, Lord. Oh lead us again."
(Hosea 5:15)

On that day we will see new heavens and Earth
In which righteousness dwells
All of our former ways shall pass from view
(Isaiah 65 / Rev 21 / 2 Peter 3)

[Concluding Chorus]
Verily, you are a god who hides himself away
Your ways are written, sung and taught
God of Israel you are
God of Israel you are
