Lyrics
Draw Near Again
Intro:
Draw me nearer, draw me, Lord,
Draw me nearer to Thee.
Tame my soul, oh tame me, Lord,
Draw me nearer to Thee.
Verse 1:
Our Father who art in heaven,
The earth can't contain Your grace.
We have sinned and now we come, Father,
Unworthy to seek Your face.
You spoke the mountains into being,
And taught the clouds to ride.
You give peace to the humble heart,
And lead the meek through the night.
Chorus:
We lift our hands to You alone,
The Holy One upon the throne.
In mercy, Lord, draw near again--
Restore our hearts and cleanse our shame.
Verse 2:
You are our hope, our light, our song--
To You, O God, we belong.
You are our joy, our life, our strength--
Yes, Lord, to You we belong.
We bow before Your throne,
Only You deserve our praise.
We give You glory, Lord--
Our peace, our help, our light. *Chorus 2x*
Outro:
Place my feet on the path You have laid,
Thank You, Lord, for the debt You have paid.
