Stay Close Songtext

von Cory Asbury

I want to be Your friend,
One who will sit and hear Your words
I want to walk with You
Down this lonely, narrow road
But God, You know my weak estate;
You know how I need Your hand of grace
To come and pull me up to where You are
I wanna stay close to the fire in Your eyes,
To the burnings of Your heart
I don't wanna grow cold
So come and set Your seal of love upon my heart,
Love as strong as death
Till I'm forever Yours
I want to be Your friend,
One who will sit and hear Your words
I want to walk with You
Down this lonely, narrow road
But God, You know my weak estate;
You know how I need Your hand of grace
To come and pull me up to where You are
I wanna stay close to the fire in Your eyes,
To the burnings of Your heart
I don't wanna grow cold
So come and set Your seal of love upon my heart,
Love as strong as death
Till I'm forever Yours
I wanna be found in the council of the Lord
With a heart that's after Yours
I don't wanna grow cold
So come and set Your seal of love upon my heart,
Love as strong as death
Till I'm forever Yours
All-consuming Fire of love, come burn away what hinders love
Till I am only, only Yours, till I am only, till I am only Yours
All-consuming Fire of love, come burn away what hinders love
Till I am only, only Yours, till I am only, till I am only Yours
Till I am only, till I am only Yours
I wanna stay close to the fire in Your eyes,
To the burnings of Your heart
I don't wanna grow cold
