People & Songs - So Close (More and More) Lyrics

So Close (More and More) is a brief prayer for growing knowledge of God. Its repeated lines hold together two convictions: God is already near, yet fellowship with him can still be sought with greater earnestness. The singer does not treat familiarity with God as an endpoint. Instead, the words express humility and a continuing desire to know him more fully.

Because the lyric is concise, repetition carries much of its meaning. The return to “could we be closer” gives the song a meditative quality, while “may I know You more” frames spiritual growth as a request rather than a personal accomplishment. The theme aligns closely with biblical prayers for knowing Christ and experiencing his presence. It also reflects the promise that drawing near to God is met by his gracious nearness. The result is a simple worship refrain focused on communion, dependence, and an ongoing hunger for God rather than outward display.
