When You Retreat to Advance

 

When you retreat to advance

You go, pray and seek His face

And there you’ll find His presence

Which comes all by His grace.

 

When you retreat to advance

You decide to pay a price

That you know will bring a dance

Because you will clinch the prize.

 

 

So go ahead, retreat to advance

 You have nothing to lose

Go ahead make the sacrifice

To avoid sing the blues.

 

Friend, go retreat to advance

Coming is a great reward

Coming is your remembrance

According to his unfailing word.

⁴     One thing I have desired of the LORD, That will I seek: That I may dwell in the house of the LORD All the days of my life, To behold the beauty of the LORD, And to inquire in His temple.

⁵     For in the time of trouble He shall hide me in His pavilion; In the secret place of His tabernacle He shall hide me; He shall set me high upon a rock.

⁶     And now my head shall be lifted up above my enemies all around me; Therefore I will offer sacrifices of joy in His tabernacle; I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the LORD.

Ps27:4-6
