Your love has ravished my heart, and

Taken me over, taken me over

And all I want is to be

With You forever, with You forever


So pull me a little closer

Take me a little deeper

I want to know Your heart

I want to know Your heart

?Cause Your love is so much sweeter

Than anything I?ve tasted

I want to know Your heart

I want to know Your heart


Whoa, whoa, how great Your love is for me

Whoa, whoa, how great is Your love

I could never run from Your love

I could never hide from Your love

I could never run from Your love

Further than You?ll find me


So pull me a little closer

Take me a little deeper

I want to know Your heart

?Cause Your love is so much stronger

Than anything I?ve faced and

I want to know Your heart

I want to know Your heart
