We've been walking this road so long, hand in hand
And the love we have between us is strong, it will stand, it will stand
Well I guess I lose my head some times when I run off and leave You behind
Still You wait with Your arms open wide
Chorus:
Though the wind, it calls my name and each step I take just fans the flame
As I chase every breeze that blows my way
There's just one thing I've got to do
As I search for what to pursue
As for me, I choose to be near to You
Though my flesh and my heart may fail I have You
When my trust in Your love grows pale, You're still true, so true
Though my heart can build the highest of walls
And my faith in You rises and falls
You have been and will be all I need
CHORUS
...near to You
