Wir berichten über Gott und die Welt
Der Song stammt von Jeremy Camps Album «Deeper Waters». Er ist eine inbrünstige Bitte an Gott, ihm zu helfen, die Distanz zu überwinden und eine tiefere Intimität in ihrer Beziehung zu finden. Als Christ drückt Camp durch diesen Song sein Verlangen aus, Gott näher zu kommen und sich auf ihn zu verlassen.
Closer To You
[Verse 1]
You, closer to You
It’s just like me to fear
Feeling any kind of pain
But You catching my tears
Something ‚bout it makes me brave
[Pre-Chorus]
So when it gets too heavy, I won’t hesitate
I’ll give You all my cares
You never said that it wouldn’t hurt
But You promised when it did that
You’d be right there
You’d be right there
[Chorus]
So I can stand in the rain and just let it pour
‚Cause I know You’re standing with me in the storm, oh
I can handle this life breaking my heart in two
If it means I’m closer to You
Means I’m closer to You, closer to You
[Verse 2]
And I’m so amazed at how You work it out
Evеrything I’ve faced, how it’s worth it now
I don’t have a scar on this wеathered heart
That doesn’t have a story ‚bout Your healing
I’m on solid ground
[Chorus]
So I can stand in the rain and just let it pour
‚Cause I know You’re standing with me in the storm, oh
I can handle this life breaking my heart in two
If it means I’m closer to You
Means I’m closer to You, closer to You
[Bridge]
Your defense is my confidence
When it don’t make sense at least I’m closer to You
When it’s just the noise
And I need Your voice, and I have no choice
But to get closer to You, You, closer to You
[Chorus]
So I can stand in the rain and just let it pour
‚Cause I know You’re standing with me in the storm, oh
I can handle this life breaking my heart in two
My heart in two
If it means I’m closer to You
I wanna be closer
Means I’m closer to You, closer to You
[Post-Chorus]
I wanna be closer, I wanna be closer
You, closer to You
I wanna be closer, I wanna be closer
