This Side of Heaven
James 4:8, Matt 7:7

I want to be close, as close as I can be
I want to be close, as close as I can be
I want to walk with You and draw near to You
and be as close as I can be this side of heaven

Repeat
I come boldly to Your throne room
For the curtain has been torn
I come in to spend time with You
So I will know You more

Repeat Chorus
I press in and Your wind blows through my soul as I draw close
and all the cares of the world lose their hold.

Repeat Chorus
