CLOSE TO THE CROSS

Close to the cross, oh oh
Take me close to the cross
That’s where I need to go
It helps me to see
Helps me to see
Life more clearly
When I’m close to the cross
Oh, oh, close to the cross

Close to the cross, oh oh
Take me close to the cross
That’s where I need to go
It helps me to see
Helps me to see
Life more clearly
When I’m close to the cross
Oh, oh, close to the cross

Into the world, oh oh
Take me into the world
That’s where I want to go
And let others see
Let others see
Your life in me
Take me into the world, oh, oh
Into the world

Close to Your side, oh oh
Draw me close to Your side
That’s where I want to abide
And make me like You
Make me like You
That’s my heart’s cry
When I'm close to Your side, oh oh
Close to Your side

Close to the cross, oh oh
Take me close to the cross
That’s where I need to go
It helps me to see
Helps me to see
Life more clearly
When I’m close to the cross, oh, oh
Close to the cross

Close to the cross, oh oh
Take me close to the cross
Close to the cross
That’s where I want to go
Close to Your side
Close to Your side
That's where I want to go
Close to Your side
Close to Your side
Close to Your side
Close to Your side
Take me close to the cross
