Be Near Me Lyrics

#
#I play this song on Capo 2 and with no intro. During the first verse and pre-choruses I
#lightly and then on Chorus first time, I also play lightly. In the actual song, she does
#little instrumental break before the Bridge. I just skip that when I play. Anyway, hope
#like it! God bless you!
#
I follow all the rules
Well, at least I'm trying
Hoping when my days are through
You'll be pleased
I've lived the longest days
Thinking my heart was so bad
Too scared to look in Your face
Oh, if only I had
Pre-chorus:
Is it alright if I stay here all night
by the shoreline?
Chorus:
I cannot believe You are angry or unjust
You have done nothing but have compassion on us
So be near when I've given up
Be near me...
I'm just like everyone else;
we are all hiding
Acting like I have a wealth
of knowledge and peace
But all I've ever wanted
and what men have given their lives for
Is a GOD who understands my weaknesses,
a God that I can love
Repeat Pre-chorus
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
I believe You are good and righteous
You've given me Your reckless love
So be near, be near
Repeat Pre-chorus
Repeat Chorus 2xs (first time soft, then heavy)
Ending:
Be near,
be near me
End on G
