Verse1

At times it's hard

for me to wake up

and face the day

knowin' everything

that's goin' on in the world

it ain't the same

too many times

I've let good people and things

slip through my fingers

I lost track of myself

I lost part of me

I need put together

only God can save me

Verse2

I wake up in the mornin'

wipe the sleep away

pray to God in Heaven

as I face another day

I pray He heals me

I pray He walks with me

through this day

I pray He guides me

on the right way

I pray He takes away

all the chains that bind me

please God take 'em all away

Bridge

Please erase the insanity

from my mind

take the voices

that shouldn't be there away

take the neurotic craziness

put it on down the line

take it away from me

put it outta my mind

please

Chorus

Let me be a little Closer To You

clear the thoughts from my mind

take the insanity away

take the craziness

far away from me

let me be a little Closer To You

farther away from the things

that shouldn't be

Verse3

I open my eyes

to another day

not lettin' the dreams fade away

tryin' to find peace of mind

open the door

to the right way

closin' the door of yesterday

God please guide me on my way

Repeat Bridge and Chorus

Verse4

I don't wanna fall asleep

and dream the dreams

I dream at night

if I can't wake up in the light

to a beautiful mornin'

and my woman

by my side

I wanna wake up in God's light

(solo)

Verse5

Here's to keepin' the dream

alive

another day with God by my side

guidin' me through this life

walkin' with me

the whole way

walkin' with me

through the day

Repeat Bridge and Chorus
