 Hide yourself in faithful dreams  before you live your life
 To heal the wounded leper         to calm the raging storm
 Beneath this broken cross of sin  stained with men's denial

 Slip away to heaven                  and rest in gentle peace
 With perfect steps of perfect grace  you leave behind your fear
 And though you now are breathless    with thorns upon your head

 Never to awaken                   the Lord your soul to keep
 And walk along these dusty roads  though your fate is clear
 Your body has been broken         so your children can be fed
