    "In Solitude With God" by poet Anastasia Burr Interview

    Enjoy this delightful interview with poet Anastasia Burr as she shares her poem "In Solitude with God", her ministry, and life with Richard Burr, author of "Developing Your Secret Closet of Prayer". In Solitude with God by Anastasia I. Burr To the solitude of prayer God invites His child alone; He delights when you, with meekness And by faith, approach His throne.    In the solitude of prayer, That communion of love; God reveals His glorious secrets Planned for you in heaven above.   To the solitude of prayer You must go yourself to hide; Then in peace and joy and gladness Will your heart for sure abide.   In the solitude of prayer Pray the Scriptures to the Lord; So you'll always be victorious Through His own two-edged sword.   Through the Scriptures in your praying And His Spirit in your heart, He will always show His pathways And His mighty strength impart.   'Tis in quietness and prayer You will hear His gentle voice; Thus when flesh and Satan whisper You shall make the godly choice.   In the solitude of prayer On your soul He sheds His light; Then you walk with deep assurance In the day and in the night.   Go in solitude for prayer, Daily meet the Lord most high; When you frequent this His dwelling You shall know He's always nigh.
