I woke with this song very strong in my spirit . What a hunger deep in my spirit. Oh Lord awake your love in your church again.

A very deep emotionally touching hymn with it's word reminding us all(belivers) to re-dedicate our selves to the Lord.

Isnt the name of this Hymn "Close to Thee"?


Oluwafemi Gabriel

Hymn of commitment I love to sing


Waziri Peter

Borno, Maiduguri, Nigeria

My spirit keeps crying out to sing this song since morning on my way to farm, but I don't know the first verse so I searched for it in my phone but I could not get it. Thank God I found it here. It's really a song every believer need to sing while here on earth because it's a heart cry for Jesus help.

I woke this morning with this song ringing in my innermost being. I decided to search for it, sing it before I pray. It's such a soul lifting melody. I'm very grateful you made available here. God bless you!

Try reading the soul-lifting comments as you listen to the melody. Heaven came down.
