Lyrics
Away from the cares of this world
into the place where I find rest
I wanna be where you are
Far from the pleasures of this world
Into your pleasures evermore
I wanna be with you oh Lord
You are the safest place
That I could ever be
The secret center
The center of Your will
So Lord I wanna be closer
Draw me closer a little bit closer
Closer than I used to be sir
Take me to the place
Everything is just ok
Nearer, won't you take me higher
Where the eagles fly
To the place whres I belong
Far from the reach of the enemy
Into place of serenity
I wanna be where you are Lord
Away from this world's adversity
Into a place of tranquility
I wanna be with You
Lord I know the safest place I can be
Is in the center of your will
So Lord I wanna be closer
Draw me closer a little bit closer
Closer than I used to be sir
Take me to the place
Everything is just ok
Nearer, won't you take me higher
Where the eagles fly
Closer, closer, closer
To you sir
One finger in the air
Let me here you say closer
Closer to you sir
To the place whres I belong
