Finding Refuge in God's Embrace: "Hiding Place" by Hannah Schaefer


Hannah Schaefer's song "Hiding Place" is a song that gently reminds us that no matter how distant God may seem or how long and weary the journey with Him feels, there is always a refuge in the Lord—a sacred hiding place where our hearts can rest and find peace.

Hannah Schaefer - Hiding PlaceHannah sings about a long and tiring journey alongside God, where feet are "beat black and blue." She beautifully expresses the peace that we may all find in His unwavering love. Hannah sings of God's open arms, a safe place that He has prepared, and the grace that continually amazes her. The chorus, "I can always find my hiding place in You," emphasizes the steadfastness of God's protection, comparing it to a mountain that can't be moved. 

The beauty of this message is that His arms are also open for each of us. The only thing stopping us from finding that comfort in God is us, our pride, our misplaced idea that we don't need Him. He is there, waiting for you to accept His invitation to find your hiding place in Him—our unshakeable and loving refuge.

(Related scripture: Psalm 32:7; Psalm 46:1; Matthew 11:28)

Josephine Grace - Higher Than the Heavens (CCM)

Josephine Grace has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Higher Than the Heavens. Josephine shared her story behind this song:  Some songs come quickly, some come slowly. This one was definitely the latter! It was way back in 2011 when I made a home demo of the first version of this song - it was moodier with completely different chords, melody and lyrics - and then it sat on the shelf (or more literally, on an external hard drive full of archived files) until the back end of last year. I’ve done some studying online with Hillsong College this past year and a half and at some point I’d explored what being wholehearted towards God means. Bits of the old song (it was called ‘I Will’ at that point), written quite directly from Psalm 108, started coming back to me beginning with Psalm 108:1 (NIV) “My heart, O God, is steadfast”.  I followed the melody in my mind to the chorus based on Psalm 108:4 (NIV) “For great is your love, higher than the heavens; your fa...
