Chris Howland - Close To You (feat. Eris Ford)

http://smarturl.it/AWchcty This song is about bringing your burdens and anxieties to God. My mind can become so fragmented and troubled by the cares and concerns of life. But when I draw near to God in prayer and Bible reading, I get a sense of His closeness which makes all my burdens feel lighter. "Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls." - Jesus. (Matthew 11:28-29) Lyrics: [Verse 1] I come and I lay down my burdens I know that I do not deserve it But You took it all with Your purchase So God I will search for Your purpose I just wanna live for Your service And I don't mean just on the surface, no But I know I don't do it perfect So I come to You when I'm hurtin' [Pre-Chorus] I have this pain You alleviate it I call on Your name It's eliminated And every weight that I hold to It dissipates when I'm close to [Chorus] You Every weight that I hold to It dissipates when I'm close to You Everything that I hold to It levitates when I'm close to You Close to You When I'm close to you [Verse 2] I've counted up the cost, I know I cannot do it on my own So Father I approach Your throne Acknowledge You're my only hope I give You my anxiety And all the worry that's inside of me In You alone I'm findin' peace In You alone my mind's at ease [Pre-Chorus] I have this pain You alleviate it I call on Your name It's eliminated And every weight that I hold to It dissipates when I'm close to [Chorus] You Every weight that I hold to It dissipates when I'm close You Everything that I hold to It levitates when I'm close to You Close to You
