Hi Charlene. Glad you loved the words to "The Hiding Place". I can't answer any of your questions, but perhaps Wylie Fulton at http://www.sermonaudio.com/source_detail.asp?sourceid=wwfulton can help you. He forwarded the words to a friend of mine, who forwarded them to me. I typed the author's name, Daniel Herbert, into Google but found nothing about him. Btw, did you ever hear the lyrics to this absolutely beautiful hymn, "Before the Throne of God Above" by Charitie L. Bancroft, (below) that I first heard about 3 years ago (amazingly I've never seen it in a hymnal). The melody to this hymn can be found at http://www.preciouslordtakemyhand.com/christianhymns/beforethethroneofgodabove.html. It is my very favorite of all hymns I've ever heard.

In His grip,
Chris

"Before the Throne of God Above"
--Charitie L. Bancroft, 1863
Before the throne of God above
I have a strong and perfect plea.
A great high Priest whose Name is Love
Who ever lives and pleads for me.
My name is graven on His hands,
My name is written on His heart.
I know that while in Heaven He stands
No tongue can bid me thence depart.

When Satan tempts me to despair
And tells me of the guilt within,
Upward I look and see Him there
Who made an end of all my sin.
Because the sinless Savior died
My sinful soul is counted free.
For God the just is satisfied
To look on Him and pardon me.

Behold Him there the risen Lamb,
My perfect spotless righteousness,
The great unchangeable I AM,
King of glory and of grace,
One in Himself I cannot die.
My soul is purchased by His blood,
My life is hid with Christ on high,
With Christ my Savior and my God!
