sarah

I try to wake up with a friendly smile

To walk this road and go the extra mile

I want to be a caring, loving soul

But Lord, I know I need You to be whole

I'm seeking out the peace that You provide

To keep this gentle spirit deep inside

I just want to be closer to God

To lean on His word when the journey is hard

Keep my eyes fixed on the heavens above

And pour out my life from a vessel of love

Oh, let my faith be the path I trace

I'm stepping a little closer to grace

I think about those Sunday morning pews

The fellowship and all the friends I choose

We bow our heads and sing out every hymn

And let the Holy Spirit settle in

Those memories are anchors in my mind

The sweetest kind of comfort I can find

I just want to be closer to God

To lean on His word when the journey is hard

Keep my eyes fixed on the heavens above

And pour out my life from a vessel of love

Oh, let my faith be the path I trace

I'm stepping a little closer to grace

Whenever I stumble, whenever I stray

I listen for the Word to light the way

Take this loving heart and make it Yours

And lead me back through those sanctuary doors

'Cause I just want to be closer to God

To lean on His word when the journey is hard

Keep my eyes fixed on the heavens above

And pour out my life from a vessel of love

Oh, let my faith be the path I trace

Lord, keep Sarah closer to Your grace

Yeah, I'm stepping a little closer to grace
