He Is Near
Lord, you are with me, I am never alone
In the midnight hour you hear my plea .
Calling out your name so desperately
I reach out to you, and you come to me.
I hear you gently call out my name
I listen ever so close with my heart.
You say, my child I’m always near
Don’t fear, our spirits will never part.
I am your refuge, and I am your strength
Your peace in the midst of the storms.
I am your rock, and I am your fortress
Holding you close, keeping you strong.
Lord you are with me, I close my eyes
In the midnight hour as I fall asleep
I feel your presence surrounding me
And in your arms my soul you keep.
