| Closer to me I’m tired and I’m weak
|
| And every breath within me is longing just to be
|
| Closer to You
|
| So I face the road ahead
|
| Cause I know there’s no comparing
|
| To what’s waiting at the end
|
| So let the rain start falling where it will
|
| And I will run through this valley
|
| Just to climb to that hill
|
| And if they ask why I’m smiling
|
| After all I’ve been through
|
| It’s cause I’m just a day closer to You
|
| Closer to me I hear You whisper on the wind
|
| You say although my life is ending
|
| A new one will begin
|
| Closer to You
|
| And I know I’m not alone
|
| Cause I can hear You in the distance
|
| Saying, you are nearly home
|
| So let the rain start falling where it will
|
| And I will run through this valley
|
| Just to climb to that hill
|
| And if they ask why I’m dancing
|
| Though my days may be few
|
| It’s cause I’m just a day closer to You
|
| Closer to me You’re in the laughter and the tears
|
| Of the ones I leave behind me
|
| Who have prayed me through the years
|
| Closer to You
|
| And I know it won’t be long
|
| Till You’re running down the pathway
|
| Just to take me in Your arms
|
| So let the rain start falling where it will
|
| And I will run through this valley
|
| Just to climb to that hill
|
| And if they ask why I’m singing
|
| Though my life’s almost through
|
| It’s cause I’m just a day closer
|
| I’m just a day closer
|
| I’m just a day closer to You |
