CLOSER AND CLOSER I COME

Closer and closer I fly                  
To the flame and heat            
Of the mighty Spirit            
The Holy Spirit of God
The fire that burns              
The fire that refines,           
And fully cleanses me


Closer and closer I come
To the presence and enveloping power
Of our Mighty Father
Of the Prince of peace,
Of the King of kings
Who rules and reigns
Above the entire universe,
Above all powers and dominions

Closer and closer I come
To the intimacy and communion
To the fellowship and dependency
On our Holy, Holy, Holy Spirit
In submission and obedience
As I yield and surrender all
To His strong trustworthy control
Into His hands I fall
In His counsel I dwell.
