Closer To You Songtext
von Mark Schultz

Closer to me
I′m tired and I'm weak
And every breath within me
Is longing just to be closer to You
And 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 fading
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
When 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
Oh, to You
