I've been tired and weary

C             G
Heading back home

                   F      C
Never thought it'd be so hard

             Am     G
Walking the narrow road

                 F         C
Through all the toils and trials

Instead of taking Your hand

                F       C
Lord won't You burn a - way

          C             G
All that keeps You from me

I want You here closer, closer

      G     C
Than any - thing

                   F             C
So take me to the center of the fire

Walk me over mountains and valleys

                G              C
'till I'm only hanging by Your prayer

                  F      C

What I know about the ocean

                     Am       G
When You tell it to part it parts

                  F          C
Even though the darkest of nights

   C               G
It draws me to my knees

                   F       C
And it brings me closer, closer

        G         C
When I hear You speak

     C                G
Who loved his ene - mies

                 F           C
The whole world mocked and laughed

'cause of what they couldn't see

         F     C        C                 G
He was closeness,  the truth that sets us free
