Casting Pearls cover
08. Close Your Eyes
Album: Casting Pearls
Artist: Casting Pearls
         
 

Hold on to my hand don't be afraid
I want to take you to a special place
Put a big smile on your face
All pain has been erased for good
You lie there helpless you can't go on
I'll get you through this let my words be your song
Your strength to carry on cause yesterday is gone Today you're free
Close your eyes fall asleep
I am here with you and I'll never leave
Close your eyes fall asleep and I'll carry you I won't let you go
So let's move mountains of any size
Soar to the heavens and leave this world behind
For I have heard your cry
All I have is yours all you had is mine
I'll never let you go
Forever hold you close
There's nowhere you can go to escape from me my love
So fix your gaze above you're in the shadow of my love
CHORUS

BY BRYAN OLESEN, MARK HEIMERMANN, JASON BURKUM, CASE MARANVILLE, SCOTT RUTZ / COPYRIGHT 2005 CASTING PEARLS AND INPOP RECORDS

Behind the Song:
"Here’s another song co-written with Mark Heimermann. It comes from the perspective of what I think God might say. I don’t want to put words in His mouth, but the lyrics draw on scriptural truth that we can find comfort in." - Bryan Olesen (Casting Pearls)
