John Reuben - Draw Near lyrics
[John Reuben - Draw Near lyrics]
My God I draw near, my God I draw near
Death whispers words of defeat in my ear
My God I draw near, my God I draw near
God of creation here I stand
I've left Babylon to find out who I am
I've traveled I've struggled I've
Failed in vain
My own ability will never see eternal gain
God of creation it's you whom I seek
Lord I feel strapped n tied down
And my strength is weak
Oh Lord when I cry out please
Hear what I speak
Bring life to my body awaken this sleep
Death whispers words of defeat in my ear
My God I draw near, my God I draw near
Death whispers words of defeat in my ear
My God I draw near, my God I draw near
When all vanishes and I stand in this place
To face the truth for what it is
With no human esacpe to hide
Behind just my soul
N God and I find it mind blowing
Knowin that humanity and a mere
Mortal man like me
Can have my slate cleaned of mistakes and
The chance to put on immortality
Even though darkness has hardened us
In deception and spoken otherwise
Man I refuse to take in that nonsense
And I refuse to buy into these lies
These lies of pain, these lies of shame
These lies of complete dysfunction
This lie of hopelessness that will make
A person feel like they're nothing
This lie that will make me feel like my
Struggle is one too much to fix'n
Isn't that what darkness wants for me to
Play the role of a victim
But, I'm a child of light and no
Longer am I bound by slavery
I say oh death were is your sting
And oh Hades where's your victory?
Hear my cry oh God attend to my prayer
From the end of the earth I will cry to you
When my heart's overwhelmed I will cry to you
Leave it to the rock that is higher than I
For you have been a shelter for me
A strong tower from the enemy
I will abide in your tabernacle forever
My God I draw near, my God I draw near
My God I draw near, my God I draw near
Death whispers words of defeat in my ear
My God I draw near, my God I draw near
Death whispers words of defeat in my ear
My God I draw near, my God I draw near
Death whispers words of defeat in my ear
My God I draw near, my God I draw near
Death whispers words of defeat in my ear
My God I draw near, my God I draw near
My God I draw near, my God I draw near
My God I draw near, my God I draw near
