I Want to Get Closer

Now when the Lord shall call me from His home in the sky on that final day

I want to be found ready it’s my daily drive it’s the reason why I say

I wanna get closer (closer to my God) I wanna get closer (closer to my God)

I wanna get closer (closer to my God) to my God each day (to my God each day)

I wanna be nearer to the heart of God, I wanna get closer to my God each day

Now there’s a great day a-comin’ it won’t be long ‘til the trumpet sounds

I know the Lord will call me since I trust His name and I know my feet are gonna rise from the ground

I wanna get closer (closer to my God) I wanna get closer (closer to my God)

I wanna get closer (closer to my God) to my God each day (to my God each day)

I wanna be nearer to the heart of God, I wanna get closer to my God each day

I wanna get closer (closer to my God) to my God each day (to my God each day)

I wanna get nearer to the heart of God, I wanna get closer to my God each day
