1. For your nearness Lord I hunger.
For your nearness Lord I wait.
Hold me ever closer Father.
Such a love I can't escape.
For your nearness I am hoping.
For your nearness Lord I long.
Have no need of any other.
I have found where I belong.
Yes, I have found where I belong.
[chorus]
So draw me nearer Lord.
Never let me go.
Closer to your heart.
Draw me nearer Lord.(x2)
2. In your nearness there is healing.
What was broken now made whole.
Restoration in it's fullness.
Lasting hope for all who come.
In your nearness I take shelter.
Where you are is where I'm home.
I have need of only one thing
To be here before your throne.
To be here before you throne.
[chorus]
[bridge] x2
And keep me here, keep me here.
There's nowhere else I rather be.
[chorus]
