Here is a thought and I know that it's right So we better sit down and talk tonight We're being torn away from our fam'ly and friends No time for the Lord How subtle it begins I know the truth and you know it, too Now it's very clear what we've got to do Well, I'm not sure what you have heard But what I mean can be said in one word To get Closer, closer We've gotta get closer, closer Say what's in your heart Tell them that you love 'em tonight There is a plan and the time has come Not for a few but for ev'ryone You're looking for truth And if you really want to know The Lord's gonna show You the way you should go To bring into our lives and the dream that we see He's gonna start with you and with me So now we've heard what we've gotta do And ev'ry day the Lord's words come through To get Closer, closer We've gotta get closer, closer Say what's in your heart Tell them that you love 'em tonight We've gotta get get closer, closer We've gotta get closer, closer Now's the time to start Trust Him; it'll be alright So long, we can't see the end
When we think it's not near We say we'll slow down But we're never with the ones we hold dear And I can see where there'll come a time When no one's close And that's a crime You know it's true It's even happening now We got to wake up And we better learn how to get Closer, closer We've gotta get closer, closer Say what's in your heart Tell Him that you love Him tonight We've gotta get get closer, closer We've gotta get closer, closer It's not too late to start Trust Him; it'll be alright So wrong. You know that it's wrong When there's no change in sight While it's still light We've gotta get closer before the night Now I know how it could be And I'm so concerned with what I see If we don't start now, we better watch out We need God's help 'Cause we've gotta learn how to get Closer, closer We've gotta get closer, closer Say what's in your heart Tell Him that you love Him tonight We've gotta get get closer, closer We've gotta get closer, closer It's not too late to start Trust Him; it'll be alright
