Come Near to Me

Can I trust you?
Would you love me
If you really knew the One inside?
I'm afraid to open up
And let you into what I've learned to hide
You say you want to know me
You want to help me through
Then here is what I'll ask of you

Come near to me
And we will walk together
Come near to me
Through the sun and through the rain
And you will see
That we are not so different
That our struggle and our pain
Is very much the same
But you must come near to me

There are times when
I feel like an island
In the middle of the sea
How hard the wind is blowing
I am alone and wondering
If someone will rescue me?
I feel guilty in the asking
I should quote a verse or two
But I will risk being honest with you

Come near to me
And we will walk together
Come near to me
Through the sun and through the rain
And you will see
That we are not so different
That our struggle and our pain
Is very much the same
But you must come near

You say you want to know me
That you want to help me through
Then this is all I'll ask of you

Come near to me
And we will walk together
Come near to me
Through the sun and through the rain
And you will see
That we are not so different
That our struggle and our pain
Is very much the same
But you must come near, near to me
