Sometimes it�s a struggle
not to give in
to what I�ve always known
before I let you in
but I trust that you�ll save me
I trust you�ll make a way
I�ve seen too many miracles
Not to trust and stay

Close to your heart
here in your will
where you are
I�ll just be still
and know you are my God

Sometimes it�s a battle
between my flesh and soul
to cling to the vision
of you making me whole
but I believe you�ll provide
I believe you�ll set me free
I�ve seen too many mountains fall
not to believe you�re holding me

Close to your hear
there in your arms
where you are
safe from all harm
and know you are my God
Sometimes it�s a blessing to feel the pains of change
I embrace the flames of purity
till nothing of me remains
And I know you�ll not let me burn
I know you�ll walk beside me
I�ve seen too many desert streams
not to know I want to be

Close to your heart
here in your grace
where you are
I look in your face
and know you are my God
