Jesus Near

by William H. Clark

Jesus is near, so near, so near,
His presence doth my Spirit cheer;
His gracious voice makes me rejoice
To find Him near, so near.

Jesus is near, so near, so near,
He speaks and scatters ev'ry fear;
I see His face, I taste His grace,
For He is near, so near.

Jesus is near, so near, so near,
His love supreme dries ev'ry tear;
Each burden bears, for me He cares,
And holds me near, so near.

Jesus is near, so near, so near,
It doth not yet to us appear
What we shall be, but we shall see
When Jesus comes so near.
