Secret Session

"Good and upright is the Lord: therefore will He teach sinners in the way.... The secret of the Lord is with them that fear Him, and He will show them His covenant" (Psalm 25:14). "His secret is with the righteous" (Proverbs 3:32). "He [Jesus] also went up unto the feast, but as it were in secret.... Jesus went up into the temple... and said... If any man will do His will, he shall know of the doctrine" (John 7:10-17).

There is a precious, secret session
That God has with His own
When He communicates His lesson
And makes His presence known.

The secret of His great reward
To sinners He will teach,
Who turn from sin, confess Him Lord,
And to His mercy reach.

Our Savior went up secretly
On a feast day celebration,
But then He showed them openly
The way of His salvation.

Some were there who understood,
Yet others who did not.
The Lord was teaching all who would
Be humbled in their thought.

The secret of the Lord today
Our Lord is still revealing,
As sinners who have gone astray
Yet find in Him their healing.
