Closer Than a Friend

[Intro]
Put your hands in the sky
Hands in the sky

[Verse]
I keep it real
Way too real
I ain’t doing nothing if it ain’t your will

Need your word in me like I need my meal
I Lift my hands up and I know your real

In your presence, I kneel
My life I yield
I walk by faith not sight I’m blind still

Got no fear ‘cause I know you’re for me
I can’t lose ‘cause I know you’re for me

Life is better when you know why you’re made for
So my life’s better I’m eternally grateful
I’m eternally paid for
On the cross when they killed my saviour

So let’s keep it real
If you didn’t know, now you know the dеal

[Chorus]
Put your hands in the sky
From left to right
The pain is ovеr

He had us in mind
Before he made time
Let’s live in the moment

He’s closer than a friend
He reigns above all men
He chose us time again
He’s closer than a friend

[Verse]
You’re closer God
You’re closer God
Don’t nobody near me except you God
All I need is your spirit within me God
Don’t need nothing this world has to offer God

This world’s full of lies and deceptions
So I follow your path and directions
Keep me close I need your protection
If they tempt me, rejection

If I keep you close I can’t lose
If you keep me close I won’t lose
I’m chasing, I’m fighting for you
And I chose to follow I do, you

So let’s keep it real
If you didn’t know, now you know the deal

[Chorus]
Put your hands in the sky
From left to right
The pain is over

He had us in mind
Before he made time
Let’s live in the moment

He’s closer than a friend
He reigns above all men
He chose us time again
He’s closer than a friend

Put your hands in the sky
From left to right
The pain is over

He had us in mind
Before he made time
Let’s live in the moment

He’s closer than a friend
He reigns above all men
He chose us time again
He’s closer than a friend
