Life keeps getting harder
But I, I can?t stop now
In a land past those who?ve fallen
I press on so that I will see
I don?t need to understand
Why things don?t go as planned
Even though it?s getting harder
There?s a Light that?s close to me
To base your life on a promise
Would seem foolish to some I know
Faith is more than wishful thinking
I?m sure of what?s unseen
I don?t need to understand
Why things don?t go as planned
Even though it?s getting harder
There?s a Light that?s close to me
I don?t need to understand
Why things don?t go as planned
Even though it?s getting harder
There?s a Light that?s close to me
There?s a Light that?s close to me

Collington's song 'Close to Me' is a reflective Christian track about persevering through life's difficulties while trusting in God's presence. The lyrics acknowledge that life gets harder and plans often fail, but the singer chooses to press on, holding onto faith rather than needing to understand everything. The repeated refrain about a light being close conveys comfort and assurance that God is near even in tough times. The song emphasizes that faith is not just wishful thinking but confidence in what is unseen, and it encourages listeners to keep going because of that nearness.
