Text:Enter into thy Closet
Author:F. G. Burroughs
Tune:[Enter into thy closet]
Composer:Wm. J. Kirkpatrick

87. Enter into thy Closet

1 Enter into thy closet,
Steal from the world away;
There in the calm and silence
Unto thy Father pray.

Refrain:
Pour out the woes that oppress thee,
On him thy burdens roll;
He who doth know thy sorrows
Will surely refresh thy soul.

2 Enter into thy closet,
Hide from all else thy grief,
He who can see in secret
Shall give thy heart relief. [Refrain]

3 Enter into thy closet,
Stay till thou findest rest,
Then bring thy peace where others
May by its calm be blessed. [Refrain]
