Closer To God

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I thought the more I cleaned myself up The more worthy I'd be I thought I had to draw near to Him For Him to draw back to me [Pre-Chorus] But He's the breath in my lungs when I'm gasping for air He's the friend listening, holding my desperate prayers [Chorus] In every hour that felt too dark In every moment He felt far Every time I felt like He forgot Didn't know I was closer to God In every valley, He walked with me Hе sealed my future, sеt me free In every place I felt lost Didn't know I was closer to God [Verse 2] 'Cause He leans into the brokenhearted The whisper in the storm And looking back to where I started The path revealed Him more [Pre-Chorus] He's the tears in my eyes washing my soul And I had to lose it to know He's in control [Chorus] In every hour that felt too dark In every moment He felt far Every time I felt like He forgot Didn't know I was closer to God In every valley, He walked with me He sealed my future, set me free In every place I felt lost Didn't know I was closer to God [Bridge] I had to lose hope to finally stop runnin' And I had to feel alone to learn that I wasn't [Chorus] In every hour that felt too dark In every moment He felt far Every time I felt like He forgot Didn't know I was closer to God In every valley, He walked with me He sealed my future, set me free In every place I felt lost Didn't know I was closer to God [Outro] He's the friend listening, holding my desperate prayers
