(Sung in Sotho – A Hymn)
Lekunutung le Morena (My secret with God)
O, ho monate hakaakang! (O, How Pleasant it is)
Ke buisana le eena (To have a conversation)
Kamoo pelong ke ikutloang (To pour out my heart unto Him)
(Repeat)
Refrain:
Ke ‘molelle litsietsi (I tell Him about my troubles)
Tse nkhathatsang tsa lefatse (That bother me on earth)
Ke role tsohle tse ho ‘na (I unburden all from me)
Lekunutung le Morena (My secret with God)
(Repeat)
Lekunutung le Morena (My secret with God)
Hoja nka ba teng ka mehla, (If ever I could dwell there forever)
Ka mamela, ka mo boha, (To listen and view)
Ka utloa ke khatholoha! (I feel at home)
Ke khora khotso ea ‘nete (I’m filled with everlasting joy)
Ha ke buisoa ke Ntate, (When I talk with the Father)
Ke ntse ke lumelloa le’na (I find favor)
Lekunutung le Morena (My secret with God)
(Refrain)

Below is the original song before translation to Sesotho:-
IN THE SECRET OF HIS PRESENCE
TEXT:
Ellen Goreh
MUSIC:
Christopher Miner
In the secret of His presence how my soul delights to hide!
Oh, how precious are the lessons which I learn at Jesus’ side!
Earthly cares can never vex me, neither trials lay me low;
For when Satan comes to tempt me, to the secret place I go,
To the secret place I go.
When my soul is faint and thirsty, ’neath the shadow of His wing
There is cool and pleasant shelter, and a fresh and crystal spring;
And my Savior rests beside me, as we hold communion sweet:
If I tried, I could not utter what He says when thus we meet,
What He says when thus we meet.
Only this I know: I tell Him all my doubts, my griefs and fears;
Oh, how patiently He listens! and my drooping soul He cheers:
Do you think He ne’er reproves me? What a false Friend He would be,
If He never, never told me of the sins which He must see,
Of the sins which He must see.
Would you like to know the sweetness of the secret of the Lord?
Go and hide beneath His shadow: this shall then be your reward;
And whene’er you leave the silence of that happy meeting place,
You must mind and bear the image of the Master in your face,
Of the Master in your face.

When there is no one to go to,when there is no one to talk to,when there is no one that will ever understand your situation but when you turn to the Lord, have a conversation with Him,regardless of how long or short it might be. Just to have a secret with Him and got to feel like you could remain there forever. When He become the only Man for you to appreciate you,to accept you, to rise you up from your pit of misery, turn to be the only one who understand you and don’t get disgusted by things you been unfaithful to Him with. He choose to be faithful to you as He has promised, oh how grateful we are for favoring us,its such a privilege indeed to have God in our lives,that is why is so essential to thank Him all the time.
God we thank you so much.
#Blessed
