The Inner Room

Go to the inner room, the secret chamber
Go to the inner room, the storehouse of God.
Do not heap up empty words, vein repetitions
Like empty stammering, pray with the Spirit.
Do not pray like hypocrites, like actors on a stage
Pray with sincerity, mean the words that you say.
The inner room,
the secret chamber The inner room, the storehouse of God.
The inner room, the secret chamber The inner room, with God alone.
Pray to your Father, who knows your secrets.
He knows just what you need before you even ask.
And forgive your enemies,
their sins and transgressions
Forgive your enemies and you’ll be forgiven.
The inner room,
the secret chamber The inner room, the storehouse of God.
The inner room, the secret chamber The inner room, with God alone.
Go to the inner room, with God alone.
