[Verse 1]
Sweeter than the honeycomb
Safer than the safest hope
Louder than the echoes of my longing
Purer than a wedding bell
Better than an "It is well"
Deeper than the oceans of my wanting

[Chorus]
Your nearness
Oh, Your nearness
Is my good
Your nearness
Oh, Your nearness
Is my good

[Verse 2]
Stronger than the enemy
Greater than my unbelief
Closer than the air I breathe, oh Jesus

[Chorus]
Your nearness
Oh, Your nearness
Is my good
Your nearness
Oh, Your nearness
Is my good (Yeah)
[Bridge]
Be near, oh God
Be near, oh God
'Cause You're all I want
You're all I want
Open my heart to feel Your presence
And know that You are here
Be near, oh God
Be near, oh God
'Cause You're all I want
You're all I want
Open my heart to feel Your presence
And know that You are here

[Chorus]
Your nearness
Oh, Your nearness
Is my good
Your nearness
Oh, Your nearness
Is my good

[Outro]
Your nearness
Oh, Your nearness
Is my good
