From the recording Quiet Times
Lyrics
VERSE 1
Quiet times are the best times - being close to you
Quiet times are my favorite times - dwelling here with you.
VERSE 2
Surrounded by your glory - in this heavenly place.
You fill and restore me - by the wonders of Your Grace.
CHORUS
Jesus, I want to be closer. Closer, Lord to You!
Father, I want to be nearer. Nearer, God to You!
VERSE 3
Quiet times are peaceful times - you set my soul at rest.
Quiet times are telling times - you show me what is best.
BRIDGE -
Sometimes distractions keep me away
a most regrettable choice.
I want to seek you with all my heart
I want to hear your voice.
VERSE 4
Quiet times they’re the best times - being close to you
Quiet times they’re my favorite times - dwelling here with you.
