LYRICS: Anne Wilson - 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
He sealed my future, set me free
In every place I felt lost
Didn't know I was closer to God

[Verse 2]
Cos He listens to 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 running
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
