"Makes me want to touch the heart of God - to be real, release emotions that are otherwise held back. Thank you for daring to produce such an emotionally vulnerable album!"

All My Desire

Seek My Face Song Notes

An intimate worship song with a lovely celtic lilt.

My One Delight

Seek My Face Song Notes

An intimate and touching song. Solo voice and piano.

I Will Praise Your Love Forever

Seek My Face Song Notes

Intimate worship. Leads to spontaneous free praise towards the end. Nice acoustic guitar work throughout.

Be With You

Seek My Face Song Notes

A morning prayer - to be with the Lord, and to walk with Him throughout the day. A spontaneous song. This little gem came at the tail end of a 20 minute "free worship" time that I had one morning. The original audio file ( piano and lead vocal ) is an unrehearsed and live recording. The instrumental arrangements and backing vocals were added later to give a little more substance to the song. Hope you like it. Don't forget to "be" with Him today!

He Who Dwells...

Seek My Face Song Notes

A spontaneous song of worship based on Psalm 91. Instrumentation and backing vocals were added later.

My God Is A Great God

Seek My Face Song Notes

A simple worship song recorded live. Instrumentation and backing vocals were added later. Some radical free praise!

My Heart Longs For A Touch

Seek My Face Song Notes

A plaintive prayer, longing to be closer to the Father's heart, to be one with Him.

My Father

Seek My Face Song Notes

A gentle but passionate worship song. Recorded live, instrumentation added later. Some lovely acoustic guitar.

My Father

Seek My Face Song Notes

A passionate prayer for coming into the Secret Place of His presence.

Seek My Face

Seek My Face Song Notes

"Seek My Face" captures a completely spontaneously recorded personal time of intimate prayer and worship.

This time of free worship was totally unrehearsed, and recorded in one 20 minute sitting. The song lasts for approximately 18 minutes. Because of the size of the MP3 file I was forced to cut it into two sections. Fortunately, there was a natural break halfway through the song that allowed me to do this without seriously affecting the nature of the song or its impact. In fact, each section can be heard quite separately on its own as a complete song in its own right. But they were not conceived that way. To hear the song as it was recorded, download both files and listen to them one after the other. The full version can be heard and downloaded under Download and Donate.

Some biblical references on the subject of brokeness and humility: God dwells with those who are of a contrite and humble spirit. Isaiah 57:15 &For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones." Psalm 51:17 "The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise." I believe we are living in a time when true worshipers will not be afraid of passion in their worship. In fact, I believe this is what God is after. He is a romantic at heart, and romance without passion is not romance at all. If the heart is touched, there will be evidence of it. Mary's broken alabaster box poured forth a fragrance that Jesus said would be remembered forever. Our hearts are like that alabaster box - until it is broken in humility there can never be an outpouring of ourselves in the fragrance of true worship. Worship is surrender. Self is surrendered through brokenness. We need to find this place.

Footnotes

Seek My Face Song Notes

A "free worship" piano improvisation. Expressive, creative, unique. Worship from the heart. This little gem came at the end of a worship time I had one morning. Totally improvised.

There’s nothing more inviting than a room filled with the sound of beautiful worship - especially when that music also invites the Presence of the Holy Spirit Himself! The mood and atmosphere in a room is changed completely by the presence of God’s Spirit. Your home can be an oasis of peace – a secret haven of rest far from the maddening crowd and the pressures of the outside world. We want this gentle, soothing music to bring peace to your home, and fill your heart with worship.

The songs of The Secret Place are not christian entertainment. They are songs of the heart and simple intimate expressions of spontaneous worship - passionate pleadings of a soul in pursuit of God. This album is not just a listening experience, it is a journey of worship with the songs becoming more intimate and spontaneous in nature. We encourage you to draw aside, and allow these prayerful, intimate songs to carry you into the secret place of His presence.

Ideal for homegroups, worship settings, dance groups, personal prayer times, or new songs for churches and ministries. The perfect gift for someone who loves to worship. Have you ever bought a cd but can't leave it playing because some songs really clash with the others in mood and style? We've worked hard to bring you 70 minutes of consistently intimate and anointed worship.

Confrontingly Intimate With God

"Ray Watson has finally released his new album Secret Place. On this album Ray is confrontingly intimate with God with some serious prayer and petition to God. You can't just listen to this as background music. It will take you on a journey into the Holy Place and draw you to seek God's face." - Marty Kendall, Sharesong.org

Ray Watson is Committed to Slowing Us Down To Listen To God

"If you want to experience nature, you're not going to do it on a highway... and if you want to experience God, you're not going to do it by an occasional thought or a prayer said over dinner! Ray Watson is committed to slowing us down to listen to God, to spend time in his presence and to knowing His love for us as we take time to show our love to him! Be still and know..." - Michael Thomas

There Is A New Sound...

"It is very anointed...you have managed to capture something unique...so far ahead of its time.
There is a new sound that no one has ever heard ...it's the sound of heaven. There's a sound that mankind has never heard that our spirits crave for ...it's the sound that fills heaven. The songs that God is going to give you are going to be broadcast around the world because there are people that are waiting to hear ...the sound of heaven." - Prophecy for Ray Watson by Judy Gossett, Nov 1997
