Draw Near Lyrics by John Reuben

Draw Near Lyrics

    Chorus:
    Death wispers words of defeat in my ear
    My God I draw near, my God I draw near

    God of creation here I stand
    I've left babylon to find out who I am
    I've traveled I've struggled I've failed in vain
    My own ability will never see eternal gain
    God of creation it's you whom I seek
    Lord I feel strapped n tied down and my strenght is weak
    Oh Lord when I cry out please hear what I speak
    Bring life to my body awaken this sleep

    Chorus

    When all vanishes and I stand in this place to face the truth for what it is
    With no human esacpe to hide behind just my soul n God and I find it mind blowing
    Knowin that humanity and a mere mortal man like me
    Can have my slate cleaned of mistakes and the chance to put on immortality
    Even though darkness has hardened us in deception and spoken otherwise
    Man I refuse to take in that nonsense, and i refuse to buy into these lies
    These lies of pain, these lies of shame, these lies of complete disfunction
    This lie of hopelessness that will make a person feel like they're nothing
    This lie that will make me feel like my struggle is one too much to fix'n
    Isn't that what darkness wants for me to play the role of a victim
    But I'm a child of light and no longer am I bound by slavery
    I say oh death were is your sting
    And oh hades where's your victory?

    Hear my cry oh God
    Attend to my prayer
    From the end of the earth I will cry to you
    When my heart's overwhelmed I will cry to you
    Leave it to the rock that is higher than I
    For you have been a shelter for me
    I will abide in your time forever
    My God I draw near, my God I draw near

    Chorus
