Closer To God

[Verse 1]

I thought the more I cleaned myself up

The more worthy I'd be

I thought I had to draw near to Him

For Him to draw back to me

[Pre-Chorus]

But He's the breath in my lungs when I'm gasping for air

He's the friend listening, holding my desperate prayers

[Chorus]

In every hour that felt too dark

In every moment He felt far

Every time I felt like He forgot

Didn't know I was closer to God

In every valley, He walked with me

Hе sealed my future, sеt me free

In every place I felt lost

Didn't know I was closer to God

[Verse 2]

'Cause He leans into the brokenhearted

The whisper in the storm

And looking back to where I started

The path revealed Him more

[Pre-Chorus]

He's the tears in my eyes washing my soul

And I had to lose it to know He's in control

[Chorus]

In every hour that felt too dark

In every moment He felt far

Every time I felt like He forgot

Didn't know I was closer to God

In every valley, He walked with me

He sealed my future, set me free

In every place I felt lost

Didn't know I was closer to God

[Bridge]

I had to lose hope to finally stop runnin'

And I had to feel alone to learn that I wasn't

[Chorus]

In every hour that felt too dark

In every moment He felt far

Every time I felt like He forgot

Didn't know I was closer to God

In every valley, He walked with me

He sealed my future, set me free

In every place I felt lost

Didn't know I was closer to God

[Outro]

He's the friend listening, holding my desperate prayers
