A Worshiper's Prayer
Journey of Intimacy: Behind the Veil with Judith Christie McAllister
Lyrics
There's a place in You where many have not gone
Refers to a spiritual place within God that few have explored.
An intimacy that comes from time alone
Describes a deep closeness that arises from spending solitary time with God.
Beyond this natural mind
Transcending ordinary understanding and perception.
Leaving this earthly realm behind
Moving beyond the earthly and material realm.
We can go behind the veil
Expresses the desire to access a special, hidden place in God.
I've got to go behind the veil
Reiterates the intention to go into this intimate space with God.
In the outer courts carnal minds can live
Suggests that in the outer, less spiritual spaces, worldly thoughts dominate.
But I need something more than the inner courts can give
Expresses the need for a deeper spiritual experience than what the inner, more sacred places offer.
An experience with you
Desires a genuine and authentic encounter with God.
One so real and true
Emphasizes the reality and truth of the experience sought.
That's only found behind the veil
States that the profound experience is exclusively found in the hidden place with God.
It's only found behind the veil
Reiterates that this unique experience is only found behind the veil.
Bid me to come
Asks for an invitation to approach God.
Bid me to come
-I'll crucify my flesh so I can come
Expresses willingness to overcome personal desires and distractions to draw closer to God.
Bid me to come
Repeats the request for God to invite and allow access to the hidden place.
Bid me to come
-To sup with you behind the veil
Desires to share a meal and intimate moments with God behind the veil.
To commune with you behind the veil
Expresses the longing to commune intimately with God in the hidden place.
I want to enter in, enter in
Repeated expressions of the desire to enter and be with God behind the veil.
To be with you behind the veil
-I want to enter in, enter in
-To sup with you behind the veil
Continues the expression of the desire to enter and be with God in the hidden place.
I want to enter in, enter in
-To be with you behind the veil
-I want to enter in, enter in
Reiterates the desire to enter and be with God behind the veil.
To walk with you
Expresses the wish to walk, talk, live, sup, and commune with God exclusively behind the veil.
To talk with you
-To live with you
-To sup with you
-To commune with you
-Behind the veil
-Behind the veil
-Behind the veil
-Behind the veil
Reiterates the exclusive desire to experience God behind the veil.
