~ Draw Near to the Lord ~

~

No one knows the storm,

Like He who rides the wind.

And, no one knows my soul, 
Like He who dwells within.

All my life,

And the fears I've know,

I never have to feel alone,

As I draw near to the Lord.

Chorus:

Draw near to the Lord,

And He will draw near to you.

Stand up for the Lord,

And He will stand by you.

No matter the weather,

Nor how dark the night,

I'm under His shelter,

I'm here in His light.

~

No one knows the storm,

Like He who calms the sea,

And no one knows my heart,

Like He who died for me.

All my life,

And the things I've done,

I stand, redeemed by God's Son,

And I draw near to the Lord.

~

No one knows the storm,

Like He who walked on waves,

And no one has such wondrous truth,

That Jesus saves!

All my life,

And the ways I've grown,

Content, to know I am His own,

As I draw near to the Lord.

~

No one knows the storm,

Like He who framed the sky,

And no one else prepares for me

A place on high.

All my life,

And the joys I've known,

I never feel so at Home,

As when I'm near to the Lord.
