Draw Close to Jehovah

DRAW CLOSE TO JEHOVAH These lyrics stay faithful to James 4:8 and the blessings described on jw.org, while remaining warm, personal, and comforting. [Verse 1] I’ve been running through the noise of everyday Carrying burdens that won’t go away But I hear a quiet voice that calls my name “Draw close to Me, and I will do the same” So I open up Your Word and bow my head Talk to You in prayer like the Bible said In the stillness I can feel You drawing near And the weight I’ve carried starts to disappear [Pre-Chorus] Every time I reach for You You reach right back with love so true [Chorus] Draw close to Jehovah, He will draw close to you That’s the promise that is always proven true He gives a peace the world can never give A deeper joy that helps my heart to live When I walk with Him each day All my fears begin to fade away Draw close to Jehovah… and feel His love anew [Verse 2] In the trials when the nights feel long and cold I remember all the blessings I’ve been told Strength to stand, and answers when I pray A calm that settles every anxious day The closer that I get, the more I clearly see How faithful and how good You’ve always been to me Spiritual refreshment for my thirsty soul Your love is making broken places whole [Pre-Chorus] Every time I reach for You You reach right back with love so true [Chorus] Draw close to Jehovah, He will draw close to you That’s the promise that is always proven true He gives a peace the world can never give A deeper joy that helps my heart to live When I walk with Him each day All my fears begin to fade away Draw close to Jehovah… and feel His love anew [Bridge] No more distance, no more standing far away I’m choosing now to walk with You today In prayer and in Your Word I find my rest You hold me close and I am truly blessed [Final Chorus] Draw close to Jehovah, He will draw close to you That’s the promise that is always proven true He gives a peace the world can never give A deeper joy that helps my heart to live When I walk with Him each day All my fears begin to fade away Draw close to Jehovah… and feel His love anew [Gentle outro] Draw close… And He will draw close to you…
