Hold me close, Lord, closer to you
Take my hand, Lord, and see me through.
Though the night may be stormy,
Your light will shine through.
Hold me close, Lord, closer to you.
Over many rocks and brambles, I've stumbled on my own,
Without the thought of reaching out to you upon your throne.
Please keep my eyes open, Lord, so that they might see,
You are standing here, Lord, waiting to hold me.
Hold me close, Lord, closer to you
Take my hand, Lord, and see me through.
Though the night may be stormy,
Your light will shine through.
Hold me close, Lord, closer to you.
Your forgiveness and grace are as sweet as spring air,
And when I look for you Lord, I find you everywhere.
I'm a lost wanderer, Lord, but with you I know the way,
And I know that you are listening every time I say…
Hold me close, Lord, closer to you
Take my hand, Lord, and see me through.
Though the night may be stormy
Your light will shine through,
Hold me close, Lord, closer to you.
