Your wounded side

Lyrics

[INTRO]
In the stillness of the night,
When my heart is filled with fright,
I seek your peace, Lord, I implore,
Come and be my evermore.

[CHORUS]
Jesus grant me this I pray,
Ever in your heart to stay,
Let me evermore abide,
Hidden in your wounded side.

[VERSE 1]
If the evil one prepares,
Or the world a tempting snare,
Nought I fear when I abide,
In your heart and wounded side.
Your love's my shield, your grace my light,
Guiding me through darkest night,
With every trial that I face,
I find refuge in your grace.

[CHORUS]
Jesus grant me this I pray,
Ever in your heart to stay,
Let me evermore abide,
Hidden in your wounded side.

[BRIDGE]
Come, O Lord, my soul renew,
With each heartbeat, I pursue,
Whispers of your endless love,
Heaven's promise from above.

[VERSE 2]
Death will come one day to me,
Jesus cast me not from thee,
Dying, let me still abide,
In your heart and wounded side.
In my last breath, let your name,
Be the light that heals my shame,
With your love, I’m not afraid,
In your arms, I’ve always stayed.

[CHORUS]
Jesus grant me this I pray,
Ever in your heart to stay,
Let me evermore abide,
Hidden in your wounded side.

[OUTRO]
So I’ll walk this path of grace,
With your love, I’m in your embrace,
Forever now, my heart will sing,
Of the joy your presence brings.
