Here, Master, in This Quiet Place

Author: Fred Pratt Green, 1903-2000 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Here, Master, in this quiet place, Where anyone may kneel, I also come to ask for grace, believing you can heal. 2 If pain of body, stress of mind, Destroys my inward peace, In prayer for others may I find The secret of release. 3 If self upon its sickness feeds And turns my life to gall, Let me not brood upon my needs, But simply tell you all. 4 You never said, "You ask too much," To any troubled soul. I long to feel your healing touch– Will you not make me whole? 5 But if the thing I most desire Is not your way for me, May faith, when tested in the fire, Prove its integrity. 6 Of all my prayers, may this be chief: Till faith is fully grown, Lord, disbelieve my unbelief, And claim me as your own.
