"WHEN thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door pray to thy Father, Which is in secret, and thy Father Which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly." -- Matt. 6.6 Shut in with God, from anxious care set free, The door is closed, no mortal eye can see, No one can hear but God Who dwells on high, He knows our heart, and hears our humble cry. Shut in with God, within the secret place, Where we can meet, and speak to Him by grace. We wait on Him, for God Himself is there, To hear and answer earnest, fervent prayer. Shut in with God, Who, through His Word will speak To sinners saved by grace, though frail and weak: There by the Blood which speaks of sins forgiven, Shut in with God, a foretaste this of heaven. The world outside, with all its rush and din, Cannot disturb while thus with God shut in. With Him may we delight oft-times to be, That we His Word may daily clearer see, That we may find, as there we humbly plead, Mercy and grace to help in time of need. Shut in with God that He may work and mould, That we may there His majesty behold, His glory see, and, trembling, stand in awe, While we draw near, and Him alone adore. Shut in with God, what holy joy is this, To be alone with Him is heavenly bliss, To feel His touch, His gracious voice to hear, Our hearts rejoice with trembling awe and fear. Shut in with God, may we thus often be That we may hear His voice, His working see, And be refreshed as we before Him wait, Our glorious Lord adore so high and great. Shut in with God, for other saints to pray, For Israel now in darkness, far away, For Gentiles in their sins, so hard and dead, And for the Coming of our Lord and Head. Shut in with God, that for the children too We now should pray, that God for them would do His mighty work of saving them by grace, That they may now be saved an run faith's race. Shut in with God, His precepts to obey, And be rewarded in that coming day, When Christ shall for His ransomed ones appear ! - May we by grace meet Him with joy and fear. Shut in with God, to listen to His voice, That in His presence we may now rejoice. As sinner saved, through Jesu's precious Blood, May we henceforth be oft shut in with God. …..*..... With Kind Regards!

Shut in with God, from anxious care set free,
The door is closed, no mortal eye can see,
No one can hear but God Who dwells on high,
He knows our heart, and hears our humble cry.
Shut in with God, within the secret place,
Where we can meet, and speak to Him by grace.
We wait on Him, for God Himself is there,
To hear and answer earnest, fervent prayer.
Shut in with God, Who, through His Word will speak
To sinners saved by grace, though frail and weak:
There by the Blood which speaks of sins forgiven,
Shut in with God, a foretaste this of heaven.
The world outside, with all its rush and din,
Cannot disturb while thus with God shut in.
With Him may we delight oft-times to be,
That we His Word may daily clearer see,
That we may find, as there we humbly plead,
Mercy and grace to help in time of need.
Shut in with God that He may work and mould,
That we may there His majesty behold,
His glory see, and, trembling, stand in awe,
While we draw near, and Him alone adore.
Shut in with God, what holy joy is this,
To be alone with Him is heavenly bliss,
To feel His touch, His gracious voice to hear,
Our hearts rejoice with trembling awe and fear.
Shut in with God, may we thus often be
That we may hear His voice, His working see,
And be refreshed as we before Him wait,
Our glorious Lord adore so high and great.
Shut in with God, for other saints to pray,
For Israel now in darkness, far away,
For Gentiles in their sins, so hard and dead,
And for the Coming of our Lord and Head.
Shut in with God, that for the children too
We now should pray, that God for them would do
His mighty work of saving them by grace,
That they may now be saved an run faith's race.
Shut in with God, His precepts to obey,
And be rewarded in that coming day,
When Christ shall for His ransomed ones appear ! -
May we by grace meet Him with joy and fear.
Shut in with God, to listen to His voice,
That in His presence we may now rejoice.
As sinner saved, through Jesu's precious Blood,
May we henceforth be oft shut in with God.
