[instrumental instro]
[Verse 1]
In the quiet of the morning,
When the world is still asleep,
I hear You calling softly,
To the place where love runs deep.
Every moment, every heartbeat,
Draws me closer to Your side,
There’s no place I’d rather be, Lord,
Than where Your glory abides.
[Chorus]
I want to be where You are,
In the light of Your great love.
Near Your heart, so close to mine,
Where heaven meets the earth divine.
Every step, I’ll follow far,
Lord, I just want to be where You are.
[Verse 2]
In the trials and the valleys,
Through the fire and the rain,
You’re the shelter that I run to,
The healer of my pain.
Every whisper of Your mercy,
Every promise You make new,
Draws my spirit ever closer,
Lord, I long to be with You.
[Chorus]
I want to be where You are,
In the light of Your great love.
Near Your heart, so close to mine,
Where heaven meets the earth divine.
Every step, I’ll follow far,
Lord, I just want to be where You are.
[Bridge]
There’s fullness of joy in Your presence,
Peace that no one can take away.
I’ll surrender all to be near You,
Forever in Your arms to stay.
[Chorus]
I want to be where You are,
In the light of Your great love.
Near Your heart, so close to mine,
Where heaven meets the earth divine.
Every step, I’ll follow far,
Lord, I just want to be where You are.
[Outro]
Forever, Lord, I’ll seek Your face,
To rest within Your warm embrace.
No matter how near, no matter how far,
I’ll always long to be where You are.
