No One Needs To Know

When you call out His Name no one even needs to know
For this is not a game and it is not done as a show
In a quiet moment maybe just off to the side
Listen to the message He sent and then go out and abide

Don’t make a big deal telling everyone that you see
For when I kneel it simply becomes just God and me
Don’t run to the crowd always trying to explain
For in being so loud there is nothing at all to gain

Tell Him all of your pain and no one even needs to know
So now you needn't feign you can just let those feelings flow
As soon as you awake or at least before you go to bed
For your own personal sake please remember what I said

Just take one step back in a quiet calm place
Tell Him all that you lack and all the problems that you face
True He already knows in His infinite Power of Grace
But as this life here goes you need to at least state your case
