Song Lyrics
I see You, my first love
My soul’s one desire
This vision of You ignites me
With unquenchable fire
And though times erodes so many things
Oh, God, my passion for You never fades
I am closer than ever
One step closer every day
Lord, I need You more than ever
So don’t let my heart ever stray
Jesus, I pray
Draw me closer than ever
I know You are faithful
And I’m cleansed by Your blood
So these thoughts of You consume me
And I’m kept by Your love
Lord, even though the world may grow cold
You burn in me, o light of my soul
I am closer than ever
One step closer every day
Lord, I need You more than ever
So don’t let my heart ever stray
Jesus, I pray
Draw me closer than ever
May I never leave You
Bind me to You by Your grace
That when this life is over
I might finally see Your face
Knowing You were with me all the way
I am closer than ever
One step closer every day
Lord, I need You more than ever
So don’t let my heart ever stray
Jesus, I pray
Draw me closer than ever
