Be Close to Me

from Unless the Lord by Matt and Joanna Black

/

about

A song about meeting Jesus in the midst of private sin and isolation. Mark 4:35-41, James 4:7-10

lyrics

How beautiful is the sound
Of the voice calling me to life
You find me in the dark
All alone in the night

And You say don’t fear
And You say I am here

Jesus when I hear Your voice whispering to me
I know it’s all right
You say I only want to be close to you
Be close to Me
Be close to Me

Time after time
I get so far I lose my way
You understand take me as I am
Guide me with Your hand

And You say don’t fear
And You say I am here

Jesus when I hear Your voice whispering to me
I know it’s all right
You say I only want to be close to you
Be close to Me
Be close to Me

And You say don’t fear
And You say I am here

Jesus when I hear Your voice whispering to me
I know it’s all right
You say I only want to be close to you
Be close to Me
Be close to Me
Be close to Me
Be close to Me
