VERSE 1
I still my heart to hear Your voice
There’s nothing else that matters more
You’re never far away from me
Your presence changes everything
CHORUS
Be near, be nearer, oh God
I just wanna be with You
I just wanna be with You
Right here, right here with You, God
I don’t need anything
When it’s just You and me
Be near
VERSE 2
I’m done with trying on my own
My hope is found in You alone
There’s nothing on this earth I need
As long as You are here with me
CHORUS
Be near, be nearer, oh God
I just wanna be with You
I just wanna be with You
Right here, right here with You, God
I don’t need anything
When it’s just You and me
Be near
BRIDGE 1
Where You are, there is freedom
Where You are, the darkness flees
Where You are is where I wanna be
BRIDGE 2
Where You are, there is healing
When I’m with You, I am free
Where You are is where I wanna be
