CLOSER TO YOU

w/m: Roger Thrower
VERSE 1
LORD, I NEED TO BE CLOSER TO YOU,
CLOSER TO YOU, SO IF I FALL DOWN
I’LL FIND MYSELF CLOSER TO YOU,
CLOSER TO YOU, SAFE ON HOLY GROUND
LORD, I FIND MYSELF REACHING TO YOU,
REACHING TO YOU FOR YOUR WARM EMBRACE
I KNOW YOU ARE REACHING FOR ME,
REACHING FOR ME, YOU LIFT UP MY FACE

CHORUS
UNDERNEATH THE SHADOW OF YOUR WING
I AM RENEWED—–IN YOU I’M MADE NEW AGAIN
UNDERNEATH THE SHADOW OF YOUR WING
THE SHACKLES BREAK AND I CAN SING
IN THE SHADOW OF YOUR THRONE
I KNOW THAT YOU ARE MY HOME
I’M ETCHED IN THE PALM OF YOUR HAND
WHERE I BELONG

VERSE 2
LORD, I NEED TO BE CLOSER TO YOU,
CLOSER TO YOU, SO WHEN I FALL DOWN
I’LL FIND MYSELF CLOSER TO YOU,
CLOSER TO YOU, SAFE ON HOLY GROUND
LORD, I’LL FIND MYSELF REACHING TO YOU,
REACHING TO YOU FOR YOUR WARM EMBRACE
I KNOW YOU ARE REACHING FOR ME,
REACHING FOR ME YOU LIFT UP MY FACE

(CHORUS)

Psalm 124:4-8

1 4 Then the waters would have overwhelmed us,
The stream would have gone over our soul;
5 Then the swollen waters
Would have gone over our soul.”
6 Blessed be the LORD,
Who has not given us as prey to their teeth.
7 Our soul has escaped as a bird from the snare of the fowlers;
The snare is broken, and we have escaped.
8 Our help is in the name of the LORD,
Who made heaven and earth.
