Verse 1
Sweeter than the honeycomb
Safer than the safest hope
Louder than the echoes of my longing
Purer than a wedding bell
Better than an “It is well”
Deeper than the oceans of my wanting
Chorus
Your nearness
Oh, Your nearness
Is my good
Your nearness
Oh, Your nearness
Is my good
Verse 2
Stronger than the enemy
Greater than my unbelief
Closer than the air I breathe, oh Jesus
Chorus
Your nearness
Oh, Your nearness
Is my good
Your nearness
Oh, Your nearness
Is my good (Yeah)
Bridge
Be near, oh God
Be near, oh God
‘Cause You’re all I want
You’re all I want
Open my heart to feel Your presence
And know that You are here
Be near, oh God
Be near, oh God
‘Cause You’re all I want
You’re all I want
Open my heart to feel Your presence
And know that You are here
Chorus
Your nearness
Oh, Your nearness
Is my good
Your nearness
Oh, Your nearness
Is my good
Outro
Your nearness
Oh, Your nearness
Is my good
