COME CLOSER

Words: Micah
Music: Paulo

Verse One:
I said, (F)"Take me with You from this place,
The (Gm7)burden's more than I can bear."
I (F/A)slowly looked up in Your face
And (Eb)saw a trace of (Ebmaj7)sadness lying (F)there.(Eb/F)

Verse Two:
You said, (Bb)"Giving up and running Home
Will (Gm)bring you broken and ashamed.
My (Bb)plan is through it all to grow
And (Gm)learn to lean on Me and call My (Eb)Name.

Chorus:
(Dm7)Burdens are for (Gm)lifting,(Gm7/F)
(Eb)Trials are for (F)sifting.(Eb/F)
(Bb)Sadness breaks the (Ebmaj7)hardest heart, and then,
Come (Dm7)closer, I will (Gm7)heal you.
(Eb)Closer, 'til I (F)feel your love,(Eb/F)
And (Bb)closer we'll be(Ebmaj7)come one once again,
(Bb) Closer we'll be(Ebmaj7)come one once again.

Verse Three:
I said, (F)"Jesus, seems like I just fall
And (Gm7)rise to fall again once more;
For (F/A)all my will to give my all,
It (Gm7)seems I look up mostly from the (Eb)floor."

Verse Four:
You said, (Bb)"Though you've fallen seven times,
Or (Gm)seventy times more, I love you still,
For the (Bb)will to stand up one more time
(Gm)Wanting most of all to do My (Eb)will."

[Repeat Chorus]

Bridge:
(Eb) Oh, Jesus, (Bb)let me rest my weary soul upon Your (Eb)shoulder,
Oh, let me (Bb)nestle, as I weep, inside Your (Eb)arms.
Oh, Jesus, (Cm)how I need Your (Cm7/Bb)gentle waves of Love to (Eb)calm me,
(Cm)Cresting, falling (Cm7/Bb)on me soft and (F#)warm.(Eb/F)

Ending Chorus:
"Come (Bb)closer, I will (Eb)heal you,
Come (Bb)closer, 'til I (Ebmaj7)feel your love,
And (Bb)closer, we'll be(Ebmaj7)come one once again.
[Whisper Word that thrill my soul!]
(Bb)Closer we'll be(Ebmaj7)come one once again.
[Seeds of Love that make whole!]
(Bb)Closer we'll be(Ebmaj7)come one once again.
[Come closer now, come closer!]
(Bb)Closer we'll be(Ebmaj7)come one once again.
[Jesus, thrill my soul!]
(Bb)closer, we'll be(Ebmaj7)come one once again
[I need You now, come closer!...]
(Bb)Closer we'll be(Ebmaj7)come one once again.
