Hold Me Near the Cross (Ballad Slow)

[Verse 1] I come with empty hands Dust on my knees I brought my broken plans And all my grief The road was heavy on my back Too heavy to pretend But You were steady in the dark When I could not stand [Pre-Chorus] So pull me close When my faith feels small Hold my face When the tears fall [Chorus] Hold me near the cross Hold me near the cross Where mercy speaks my name And love rewrites the loss Hold me near the cross Hold me near the cross Till all I am is Yours Till all I am is Yours [Verse 2] I know my hands can stray My heart can run But every step away Is one too far from love So here I lay it down My pride, my fear, my song If You will keep me here somehow I know I'll still belong [Pre-Chorus] So pull me close When my faith feels small Hold my face When the tears fall [Chorus] Hold me near the cross Hold me near the cross Where mercy speaks my name And love rewrites the loss Hold me near the cross Hold me near the cross Till all I am is Yours Till all I am is Yours [Bridge] When the night is long And my prayers run dry When I cannot see Let Your wounds remind That You stayed for me You stayed for me And nothing in this world Can take that from me [Chorus] Hold me near the cross Hold me near the cross Where mercy speaks my name And love rewrites the loss Hold me near the cross Hold me near the cross Till all I am is Yours Till all I am is Yours
