[Verse 1] You call my name, I hear Your voice That holy cry, that wants You and me together Something in me begins to stir Deep down inside, I begin to pray [Pre-Chorus] I want to be closer to Your heart I want to be with You where You are [Chorus] How can I get a little bit closer? How can I, 'cause I've gotta know You more? How can I get a little bit closer to Your heart? How can I get a little bit closer? How can I, 'cause I've gotta have You, Lord? How can I get a little bit closer to Your heart? [Verse 2] You call my name, I hear Your voice Your love for me, it's gonna last forever Your love will be what moves my heart What stirs my soul for eternity [Pre-Chorus] I want to be closer to Your heart I want to be with You where You are [Chorus] How can I get a little bit closer? How can I, 'cause I've gotta know You more? How can I get a little bit closer to Your heart? How can I get a little bit closer? How can I, 'cause I've gotta have You, Lord? How can I get a little bit closer to Your heart? [Bridge] And love is strong as death, strong as the grave Nothing on this earth can separate Many waters can't put out this flame 'Cause love keeps calling out, calling my name [Pre-Chorus] I want to be closer to Your heart I want to be with You where You are [Chorus] How can I get a little bit closer? How can I, 'cause I've gotta know You more? How can I get a little bit closer to Your heart? How can I get a little bit closer? How can I, 'cause I've gotta have You, Lord? How can I get a little bit closer to Your heart? How can I get a little bit closer? How can I, 'cause I've gotta know You more? How can I get a little bit closer to Your heart? How can I get a little bit closer? How can I, 'cause I've gotta have You, Lord? How can I get a little bit closer to Your heart? [Outro] I want to be closer I want to be closer
