Steffany Gretzinger's song 'When You're This Close' is a worship ballad about resting in God's presence. The lyrics express confidence that God hears every word and is already attentive, so there is no need to strive for His attention. The song emphasizes letting go and finding soul rest when near to God. It also touches on the security of being known by God, even when faith wavers.

You?re not struggling to hear me

So I?m not striving to be heard

I am sure The One who made me

Is catching every word

     

When You?re this close

I rest my soul

It?s effortless

When You?re this close

When You?re this close

I can let go

It?s effortless

When You?re this close

     

I would fight for Your attention

But Your eyes are fixed on me

I would reach for Your affection

But You?ve already given it to me

     

Hold my face if I should wander

If my thoughts are far from home

If my faith is going under

Remind me I am known
