You died to this life, and your real life is hidden with Christ in God (Colossians 3:3; NLT).
May I always live, Lord God,
Hidden with Christ, in you.
May I always pray, Lord God,
Hidden with Christ, in you.
May I always serve, Lord God,
Hidden with Christ, in you.
May I always stay, Lord God,
Hidden with Christ, in you.
You will show me the way of life, granting me the joy of your presence and the pleasures of living with you forever (Psalm 16:11; NLT).

Hide me in the shadow of your wings (Psalm 17:8; NLT).
O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the city that kills the prophets and stones God’s messengers! How often I have wanted to gather your children together as a hen protects her chicks beneath her wings, but you wouldn’t let me (Luke 13:34; NLT).
Hidden with Christ is indeed the best and safest place to be. Thanks, Ruth.
