Verse:
             G                            D
And I remember the beginning
                       A                    Hm
When I found the secret place
                      G                  D
Don't know why it felt familiar
                    A            D
But I knew it right away

                  G                              D
There were times it seemed so simple
              A                      Hm
And sometimes so unsure
                       G                              D
But not a moment was ever wasted
                  A                            D
Knelt behind those closed doors

Verse 2:
                       G                    D
‘Cause the secret place is secret
                  A                      Hm
That’s where it gets its name
                 G                   D
It's not hiding but it's hidden
           A                             D
Far from all religious games

                  G                      D
No, it won’t bring recognition
                 A                     Hm
Or get called upon a stage
                   G                    D
‘Cause the melody is sacred
             A                          D
You sing in the secret place

G  D  A  Hm

Verse 3:
               G                D
It's an open invitation
              A                       Hm
No words you have to say
                 G                        D
If you want it you can get there
                     A                          D
There's a thousand different ways
                        G                 D
There's no glory in the method
                     A                               Hm
None are right and none are wrong
                G                           D
You just put your trust in Jesus
                   A                   D
And then start to sing along

Verse 4:
                G                                   D
'Cause just as you are, you're welcome
                  A                            Hm
There's no part you have to play
                G                        D
Doesn't need to be impressive
                  A                 D
’Couldn’t do that anyway
                            G                       D
‘Cause when it gets too complicated
              A                  Hm
That melody will fade
                     G                        D
But if you take the time to listen
                  A                     D
You can hear heaven's refrain

Verse 5:
                         G                       D
There’ll be days that it feels distant
                A              Hm
So far beyond my reach
                     G                            D
Like my failures locked the entrance
                     A               D
And my spirit lost the keys
                    G                   D
But the beauty of the secret
                    A              Hm
That I'm so grateful for
                       G                           D
Is that Your presence doesn't need me
                A                        D
To kick down an open door

Verse: 6
So, I'm running to the secret
I’m going there today
Got no reason not to worship
And get undignified again

There's no time for inhibitions
Or to care what people say
I won't waste another minute
Take me to the secret place
