New Song Published: “We Are Closer”

My friends at Heaven Hype Music have released one of the songs I wrote, now available on iTunes, Spotify, and YouTube!  I first shared this song on the blog in 2018, under the name “Inside of You/the Holy Spirit Song.” I wrote,

Believe it or not, the chorus of this song actually came to me in a dream. I woke up and quickly added the verses. It is one of my favorites of all my songs and is wonderful to sing while rocking and bouncing babies or pushing children on swings. It has become my go-to song for calming little ones, and it always comforts me too. 

Since then, others have told me their kids love it as a bedtime song as well. Enjoy!

And here are the lyrics:

We are closer than the children who sat on Your knee

As You blessed them,

As You bless me

We are closer than the leper You touched fearlessly

As You cleansed him,

As You cleanse me

 

We are closer than the twelve in the upper room,

Closer than the women at the empty tomb,

Closer than Thomas with his hand in Your scars,

Closer than John with his head on Your heart,

 

Because I am inside of You

And You are inside of me

–Now and forever,

Oh so securely

That I am inside of You

And You are inside of me

Now and forever

United with Thee.

 

We are closer than the woman whose hair wiped Your feet

As You forgave her

As You forgive me

We are closer than the one who grabbed Your robe on the street

And You healed her

As You heal me

 

We are closer than the twelve in the upper room

Closer than the women at the empty tomb

Closer than Thomas with his hand in Your scars

Closer than John with his head on Your heart

 

Because I am inside of You

And You are inside of me

Now and forever

Oh so securely

That I am inside of You

And You are inside of me

Now and forever

United with Thee.
