Your glory shines
And I don't see,
Caught in the sway of the world;
Your glory shines
And I'm too blind,
Wandering in this wilderness place.

Draw me close,
Draw me, Lord!
Open my eyes, let the scales fall.
Let worldly weights be loosed...
Draw me close,
Draw me, Lord!
Let Your glory warm my chilly heart.

Your glory's here,
If I would look
And see beyond the sway of this place.
Your glory's here,
And I want more
Than the trashy treasures my surroundings exalt.

Draw me close,
Draw me, Lord!
Open my eyes, let the scales fall.
Let worldly weights be loosed...
Draw me close,
Draw me, Lord!
Let Your glory fill my empty heart.

Your glory's true,
And I should know,
And I long to walk in that glorious place...
Here on this earth,
Walking closer to You,
Able to do my Father's will.

Draw me close,
Draw me Lord!
You're opening eyes that have long been blind.
Drawing me close,
Drawing me, Lord,
Your glory abounds
As You surround
And change this unglorious heart...
Drawing me,
Drawing me,
Changing me daily,
Drawing me daily,
Closer to You.
