“Hold Me Closer” (k. e. falstrom)
(Reference JOB 39: 1-3; 2 SAMUEL 22: 31:34 [PSALM 18: 30-33]; PSALM 42:1, as well as MATTHEW 5: 1-12. The “How do we do that?” line is taken from the end of Kevin’s “Apprenticeship” writing from IN THE HOUSE no. 2, by the way.)
C/G
Blessed are the poor in spirit
Blessed are the ones who grieve
Blessed are the ones who hear your voice
How do we do that? (How do we do that?)
Am G6 Fmaj7
I have sought your will and lived (2x)
Cmaj7
Now hold me closer
Fmaj7
Like a fawn who’s sleeping near a doe
Cmaj7
Hold me closer that I may know
G2 Fmaj7
That you’re here and you won’t go away (2x)
Cmaj7
You said you won’t
Blessed are lovers of righteousness
Blessed are the merciful
Blessed are the pure in heart
How can we be that? (How can we be that?)
Blessed are the peacemakers
Blessed are those who hunger for your will
Blessed are those who suffer for your sake
How do we do that? (How do we do that?)
