how long have i been here
wish i could stay forever
in the beauty of the silence
Lord i can feel your presence
all over me

but i hear a river flowing
just beyond my knowing
are You calling me
could it be that you are saying
there is even more

oh, my Lord Jesus
how i need this
fall on me
oh, my Redeemer
come even nearer
won't You fall on me

i will be your april flower
drinking up your shower
in all of me
'cause there's nothing in my dreaming
that could ever hold the meaning
of when you fall on me

is there something i've kept secret
from the reaches of Your Spirit
show me Lord
that's the last thing i would
ever want to do

oh, my Lord Jesus
how i need this
fall on me
oh, my Redeemer
come even nearer
won't You fall on me

You said to come asking
to seek and find
now i'm looking for more
of your heart and mind
do You hear me knocking
upon your door
please open it up
to more and more
more and more of You Lord

oh, my Lord Jesus
how i need this
fall on me
oh, my Redeemer
come even nearer
won't You fall on me
oh, oh my Jesus
You know i need this
fall on me
oh, loving Savior
come even closer
won't You fall on me
