Closer to God (feat. Diane Lampkin Thomas & Anna Slaughter)

Closer to God

Draw me near
Nearer blessed Lord
To the Cross where thou hast died
Draw me nearer
Nearer blessed Lord
To thy precious bleeding side

I want to be closer to God
I want to be closer to God
I want to be closer to God
So that others may see Jesus in me

There was a time that I heard Your voice
And I ran the other way
Seeking the world's fortune and fame
Your will I would not obey
As I grew older and heeded Your voice
I can truly say that I thank You Lord God
For keeping me in Your way

I want to be closer to God
I want to be closer to God
I want to be closer to God
So that others may see Jesus in me

Study to show thyself approved unto God
I learned as a child
Your yoke is easy
Jesus merciful and mild
Give your life to Jesus
Why not trust Him today
I found that Jesus is the only way

I want to be closer to God
I want to be closer to God
I want to be closer to God
So that others may see Jesus in me

Draw me near
Nearer blessed Lord
To the Cross where thou hast died
Draw me nearer
Nearer blessed Lord
To thy precious bleeding side
