Lord,
as
I
grow
older,
I
begin
to
understand…
When
I
was
young,
I
didn't
see
it.
I
didn't
understand
the
value
of
Your
Word.
Just
like
a
student
who
doesn't
see
the
importance
of
school
until
it's
too
late.
But
now
I
know,
Lord…
I
need
You
closer
to
me.
When
life
is
good,
we
sometimes
forget
You
When
everything
is
fine,
we
walk
away
But
when
the
storms
come
crashing
down
We
call
Your
name
and
ask
You
to
make
a
way
We
forget
that
You
were
there
before
the
trouble
You
were
there
before
the
tears
began
You
have
carried
me
through
every
valley
And
I
know
I’
m
safe
within
Your
plan
Oh,
I
want
to
be
closer
to
You,
Mr
Me
Draw
me
near
where
the
spirit
is
free
In
the
light
of
Your
grace,
I
finally
see
That
life
is
nothing
without
You,
Mr
Me
Yes
Lord,
walk
with
me,
talk
with
me
I’
m
running
to
You,
oh
I’
m
running
to
be
closer
I
spent
so
long
searching
for
answers
in
the
dust
Building
my
kingdom
on
a
temporary
trust
But
the
foundation
cracked
when
the
rain
started
falling
And
through
the
wind,
I
heard
Your
voice
calling
No
more
running,
no
more
hiding
in
the
shade
I’
m
stepping
into
the
promise
that
You
made
Thank
You
Jesus,
for
the
path
that
You
cleared
Your
presence
is
the
only
thing
that
I’
ve
revered
Oh,
I
want
to
be
closer
to
You,
Mr
Me
Draw
me
near
where
the
spirit
is
free
In
the
light
of
Your
grace,
I
finally
see
That
life
is
nothing
without
You,
Mr
Me
Yes
Lord,
walk
with
me,
talk
with
me
I’
m
running
to
You,
oh
I’
m
running
to
be
closer (
Choir
builds
up)
Lead
me,
guide
me,
keep
me
in
Your
sight (
Praise
Him!)
Turn
my
darkest
midnight
into
morning
light (
Glory!)
Every
step
I
take,
I
take
it
by
Your
hand
Mr
Me
is
standing
on
the
solid
rock,
the
promised
land (
Hallelujah!)
So
let
the
world
spin,
I
have
found
my
home
Never
again
will
I
wander
or
roam
With
Your
spirit
inside,
I
am
anchored
and
bold
More
precious
to
me
than
the
finest
of
gold
Glory
to
the
One
who
gave
everything
for
me
Now
my
heart
is
open,
now
my
soul
is
set
free
Oh,
I
want
to
be
closer
to
You,
Mr
Me
Draw
me
near
where
the
spirit
is
free
In
the
light
of
Your
grace,
I
finally
see
That
life
is
nothing
without
You,
Mr
Me
Yes
Lord,
walk
with
me,
talk
with
me
I’
m
running
to
You,
oh
I’
m
running
to
be
closer
Closer
to
You,
Mr
Me (
Amen)
Closer
to
You,
forever
and
ever (
Thank
You
Jesus)
Just
keep
me
closer,
Lord
Closer
to
You,
Mr
Me.
