Don't have to walk a million miles to find You
Don't have to sail around the world to see
'Cause every time I lift my heart to praise You
There You are right next to me
You're closer closer than a brother
No longer so far away
Jesus now I can touch You
I feel You in my heart
Every time I start to give You praise
I know You're getting closer(closer)
I know you're getting Closer(closer)
Don't have to do a bunch of things to please You
Don't have to play no religious games
Don't have to say a special prayer to move You
All I have to do is just mention Your name
You're closer closer than a brother
No longer so far away
Jesus now I can touch You
I feel you in my heart
Every time i start to give You praise
I know You're getting closer
I know You're getting closer
I was a stranger to Your mercy
When I cried Lord You heard me
You took away my sin
Then You let me in
You took away my sin
Now am closer
Closer than a brother
No longer so far away
Jesus now I can touch You
I feel You in my heart
Every time I start to give You praise
I know You're getting closer
Closer than a brother
No longer so far away
Jesus now i can touch You
I feel You in my heart every time I start
I feel You in my heart every time I start
I feel You in my heart every time I start
To give You praise

Lenny LeBlanc's song 'Closer' expresses the intimate nearness of God through praise. The lyrics emphasize that believers don't need elaborate rituals or long journeys to experience God's presence; simply lifting one's heart in praise brings Jesus close. The song reflects on personal transformation from being a stranger to God's mercy to being brought near through forgiveness. It conveys a sense of tangible connection with Jesus, feeling Him in the heart whenever praise begins. The message is one of accessible, relational faith where God is as close as a brother.
