Closer
"I miss our fellowship." i hear Jesus say.
I can feel the tug of God's love.
I see him beckon me to a better way.
His spirit is as gentle as a dove.
My heart longs to draw near.
At times the flame trys to fade.
I pray for the strength to endure.
But by my side he has stayed.
I know I'm safe under his wing.
"I love you" Jesus whispers to my soul.
I can almost hear the angels sing.
In him i am made whole.
So when you feel you've gone cold.
Take hold of God's outstreched hand.
Have faith as those in the days of old.
And with his help you will stand.
When this life is over down here.
Jesus will say "Come in my child well done."
Then there wont be another shed tear.
If you'll draw Closer to the son
