My God Is Near

Make me know Your presence Lord, the King of glory here

You know each thought and action, hope, anxiety and fear

How can I hide from Thee? Can darkness hide iniquity

Oh, how can I unfaithful be, when You are very near to me

When God is near, all the world seems far away

When God is near, every fear is set aside

When God is near, how can I stray, how can I falter

I'll stay upon the altar, I know my God is near

Make me know Your presence Lord, when I feel so alone

You know each trial and testing pain, the hurt that is unknown

Oh, why can I not see, Your hand so firmly guiding me?

Oh, how can I untrusting be, when You are very near to me?
