Hold me closely to Your heart
As a child in his father's arms
Hold me closely to Your heart
That is the place I belong

Lift me up, wrap Your arms around me
Lift me up, draw me close so I will know
Lift me up, reassure and hold me
Lift me up and never let me go

Carry me in rising waters
When the waves rush over me
Lift me up and keep me safety
Then I'm in Your arms
And You're surrounding me
