Anybody wanna be closer?
It feels good to be closer
Much better to be closer
I’m so excited about this song
Y’all say this after me
I wanna be closer
I wanna be closer
I wanna be better….
VERSE 1
I can’t imagine how my life will be, yeah
Without your love and grace covering me
You forgave my sins and gave me life again, yeah
I will live for you and give you all the praise
The more I try, I feel I need some more
More and more of you oh Lord
My desire is to be so close to you
CHORUS
My heart bleeds, my heart yearns for you
Nothing in this world compares to you
My heart bleeds, my heart yearns for you
To be closer and to know you more and more
VERSE 2
I live and move and have my being in u..yeah
You are everything and everything is you
I was lost but now am found, was blind, I see…now

more and more and more of you
my desire is to be so close to you
REPEAT CHORUS/2x

My heart has found a new thing
Ever since you came into my life
So I wanna be closer, closer, closer /2x

Your love is deeper than the oceans
