Closer Than a Friend
I hid Your Word so deep in my heart
So I won't be led astray
And I'm pressin' on toward the future
And leavin' the past in yesterday
So I'm waiting for You
To make me brand new
And I trust in Your truth today
So I quiet my soul
As I go for the goal
'Cause I know You'll show me the way
'Cause only love can heal a broken heart
And really make it whole again
And I believe You finish everything You start
And keep Your promise 'til the end
Staying closer than a friend
I see life coming straight from Your Word
And I know my future's bright
And as I understand Your promise
I'm starting to walk in brighter light
So I'll press on with You
As my mind is rеnewed
By the truth that You spеak today
And I've made up my mind
That I'll seek 'til I find
And trust You to show me the way
'Cause only love can heal a broken heart
And really make it whole again
And I believe You finish everything You start
And keep Your promise 'til the end
Staying closer than a friend
Your Kingdom come
Your will be done
As it is in heaven
You are the Light
You're giving me sight
Beyond tomorrow
'Cause only love can heal a broken heart
And really make it whole again
And I believe You finish everything You start
And keep Your promise 'til the end
Staying closer than a friend
Closer than a love
Closer than a friend
Closer than a friend...
