Had no idea, this love existed
Never imagined, what I was missing
But now that I know, I'm never letting go of your unchanging hand
I gave you all, all of my brokenness
Sickness, heartache and pain
Every bit of my mess
And then you turned everything around
My life you made brand new
I want to remain
Here in your presence most high
Live pleasing in your sight
My one desire is to be
Closer to you
Just to be close to you
Close to you
Just to be close to you
This is my heart's desire
The love you give to me
It keeps on lifting me up
And even when I'm down
You never leave me or forsake me
With open arms, wait to embrace me
How could I not want more of you?
Even when I slip, when I do wrong
I can run to you father, kneel before your thrown
And you are just to forgive
And love me still
Direct my path according to your will
Have a little talk with Jesus
Tell him all about your trial's
Really, really get to know him
Study, show yourself approved
