Bring Me Closer---

BRING ME CLOSER---

Bring me closer, bring me closer
Lord
Bring me closer, bring me closer
God
Bring me closer to your heart
Help me Father to impart
I wanna be loyal servant.. to you

I want to dine with you;
Eat of the manna you've provided
I've decided to sup wit you;
Bring me to the home you've provided;
Father I have now just decided;
To sup with you
To live with you
just to do

All of the things you want me to;
I just want to follow you
To live with you for all of eternity, I do;
Father you're far away;
All I know is that I pray;
To grace your blessedness always...

Eternity fathoms forever and always, yes Lord;

Bring me closer, bring me closer
Lord
Bring me closer, bring me closer
God
Bring me closer to your heart
Help me Father to impart
I wanna be loyal servant.. to you

your light does shine in the morning
My candled burns  at night
So that your will is mine and I am yours today, tonight;
Bring me closer to you Lord, God
So that I may dine come and sup wit you
Home beside and guide me as I show you my will, 
I will
so that I may instill you in love I will
Testify
Justify
In light in me your love
Bring me up so that I may sup with Christ in love

Bring me closer, bring me closer
Lord
Bring me closer, bring me closer
God
Bring me closer to your heart
Help me Father to impart
I wanna be loyal servant.. to you
Bring me closer, bring me closer
Lord
Bring me closer, bring me closer
God
