I asked for a closer walk
And then what did I find?
I seemed to find my faults
As though I had been blind.
It seemed the distance now
Between us was so great,
Did you mean to tell me
That I would have to wait?
I see myself in truth,Lord,
Unrefined, impure,
And yet you love me still
Of this I'm really sure.
It seems you had to show me
How far from you I am,
So that I could come closer
To you, oh precious lamb.
