A while ago I was introduced to John Mark McMillan's music via the hit song "How He Loves".I am really bound the this guys lyrics. Powerful stuff, so I thought I would share the song "Closer" with you all.

"Closer"- John Mark Mcmillan

Come closer, closer to me. Find me broken, find me bleedin' cause I need more now than a fairy tale, a god who lives in a book. I need someone real.

So would you come? Would you come? If i begged you, would you come closer to me now? Come closer, closer to me. Find me broken, find me on my knees, cause I need more now than philosophy. Some god in outer space doesn't mean anything to me. So would you come? Would you come? If I begged you, would you come closer to me now? Would you come? Would you come? If i begged you, would you come closer to me now? Son of David, do not pass me by, cause I am naked, I'm poor and I'm blind. Son of david, don't pass me by, cause I am naked, I'm poor and I'm blind. He really writes from a place of openness and honesty, something I really desire to have...so today I just want to come and ask... no,  I want to cry out to the Son of David not to pass me by!!I am naked and poor and blind!! Come and clothe me with your mercy, Make me rich in your grace and let the awe of your presence open my eyes to see ... Praise GOD!!
