NOBODY WILL KNOW, BUT GOD WON'T FORGET IT
THOSE THINGS DONE IN SECRET;
NO FAME OR ACCLAIM
NOBODY WILL KNOW, BUT YOU WON'T REGRET IT
HE'S KEEPING A RECORD
OF WHAT'S DONE IN HIS NAME
A HUSBAND AND HIS WIFE AT THE HOSPITAL TODAY
PRAYED FOR A COUSIN,
WHOSE LIFE WAS FADING AWAY
THEY LED HIM IN A PRAYER TO LET JESUS IN HIS LIFE
SILENT TEARS SAID THANK YOU,
THEN HE CLOSED HIS EYES
(Chorus)
A CALL CAME IN ONE NIGHT;
SHE HAS SIX MONTHS OF LIFE
SO HE CRIED OUT TO GOD FOR HIS AILING WIFE
THOUGH NO ONE KNEW THE BURDEN,
NEVER ONCE DID HE COMPLAIN
GOD HEARD THE SECRET PRAYER;
RESTORED HEALTH AGAIN
(Chorus)
Bridge:
WHEN YOU CONSIDER THE WORTH OF YOUR LIFE
AND THE CALLING WE HAVE IN CHRIST
IT CAN'T BE MEASURED BY TREASURE OR CROWDS
WHO APPLAUD YOUR NAME WITH GREAT SHOUTS
THE SPOTLIGHT IS IN OUR HOMES;
LIVE CHRIST IN REALITY
THE STAGE IS AT OUR BEDSIDE,
WHERE GOD REVEALS HIS GLORY
"HOSANNA IN THE HIGHEST!"
THE CROWD CALLED OUT ONE DAY
JESUS RODE INTO THE CITY,
HE WAS COMING MY WAY
I LAID OUT MY BEST FOR HIS TRIUMPH ALONE
THE COLT TRAMPLED MY GARMENT
AND THE MOMENT WAS GONE
(Chorus)
