LYRICS

Intro

Psalms 63 v 1 through 4'O God, thou art my God. Early will I seek thee, my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is. To see thy power and thy glory, in the sanctuary. Because thy loving kindness is better than life my lips shall praise thee. Thus, I will bless thee while I live. I will lift up my hands in thy name.

Verse 1

I don't really know a lot of things, but I know this, I'm lost without you.

I don't know just what the future brings, but I know this, I couldn't make it.

Pre chorus 1

Without you, I'm yearning, Lord I need you, please hear me.And Lord with all my heart I lift my hands to you.

Chorus

Just to be close to you, just to be close to you, just to be close to you, is my desire.

Verse 2

If I could push a button and erase all my mistakes I would be ok.

Thinking bout the choices that I've made, I might as well face it, there's only me to blame.

Pre Chorus 2

And I'm crying and I'm asking over and over, how did I give in. So desperately, I'm thirsting after you O lord

Chorus

Just to be close to you, just to be close to you, just to be close to you, is my desire.

Bridge

Closer, closer, draw me close to you. Closer, closer, all I want is you

Repeats chorus and ends

Thank you to the person who posted this song. From the first melody I was in his presence. This song speaks for me, and so many. I've strayed away, and facing some other things, but listening to this for the past couple hours, praying God hears my heart. Again, I thank you for posting.....

I love this song. I wonder if any other Christians out there will be big enough to admit that without Christ we are lost. I love this song, because I truly want to be close to Jesus more and more every day. THANK YOU JESUS! GLORY TO HIS MATCHLESS NAME!
