I pretended not to listen tried to close my burning ears
Although I'd been a sinner who wasted many years

So I turned to leave the meetin' but somehow I couldn't start
Once more I heard the voice in my heart
Move up a little closer...



I'm so thnakful for the message that was sent to me that night
I dawned by Christian armor and I bowed to spread the lights

Now when I see you sinner standing in the shadows dim
I bow my head and say this praer for him
Move up a little closer
