Alone With God
 
1. Alone with God: this is the place where new life will begin; 
By faith to gain the life that gives the vict'ry over sin, 
When we're alone with God. 
 
2. Alone with God: in private prayer and quietness we feel 
That He draws near our waiting souls and does Himself reveal, 
When we're alone with God. 
 
3. Alone with God: earth's laurels fade, ambition tempts not there; 
The world and self are judged aright and no false colors wear, 
When we're alone with God. 
 
4. Alone with God: true knowledge gained while sitting at His feet; 
We learn life's greatest lessons there which makes our joy so sweet, 
When we're alone with God. 
 
5. Alone with God: this is the keynote of a holy life; 
True rest can here alone be found and freedom from all strife, 
When we're alone with God.
