Lyrics
"Nearer"
By Dale King
Used by permission
Nearer, Lord
I want to be nearer, Lord
And as I come nearer, Lord
I know I won't be turned away
Nearer, Lord
I need to be nearer, Lord
And as I come nearer, Lord
I know that you will do the same
It's not enough to send my love
As if you were far away
I'm drawing nearer to bring my love
Into your presence here today
Nearer, Lord
I want to be nearer, Lord
And as I come nearer, Lord
I know I won't be turned away
Nearer, Lord
I need to be nearer, Lord
And as I come nearer, Lord
I know that you will do the same
