John Reuben - Draw Near Lyrics
Chorus:Death wispers words of defeat in my earMy God I draw near, my God I draw nearGod of creation here I standI've left babylon to find out who I amI've traveled I've struggled I've failed in vainMy own ability will never see eternal gainGod of creation it's you whom I seekLord I feel strapped n tied down and my strenght is weakOh Lord when I cry out please hear what I speakBring life to my body awaken this sleepChorusWhen all vanishes and I stand in this place to face the truth for what it isWith no human esacpe to hide behind just my soul n God and I find it mind blowingKnowin that humanity and a mere mortal man like meCan have my slate cleaned of mistakes and the chance to put on immortalityEven though darkness has hardened us in deception and spoken otherwiseMan I refuse to take in that nonsense, and i refuse to buy into these liesThese lies of pain, these lies of shame, these lies of complete disfunctionThis lie of hopelessness that will make a person feel like they're nothingThis lie that will make me feel like my struggle is one too much to fix'nIsn't that what darkness wants for me to play the role of a victimBut I'm a child of light and no longer am I bound by slaveryI say oh death were is your stingAnd oh hades where's your victory?Hear my cry oh GodAttend to my prayerFrom the end of the earth I will cry to youWhen my heart's overwhelmed I will cry to youLeave it to the rock that is higher than IFor you have been a shelter for meI will abide in your time foreverMy God I draw near, my God I draw nearChorus
