Heaven Will Be Near Me

Michelle Tumes

Evening fills the crimson sky 
Another day is leaving I think of you 
Waves roll in the afternoon 
They echo in the rising moon and I think of you 

And I say, oh Lord 
I think of You 
Heaven will be near me when I think of You 
And I say, oh Lord 
I think of You 
Heaven will be near me when I think of You 

Families roam along the shore 
Their laughter travels through my soul and I think of You 
Lovers watch the evening sky 
They whisper as the wind goes by and I think of You 

There's fire in my soul 
And there's healing in Your eyes 
I just want to fly in Your arms 
If ever I grow cold 
I want to realize 
Heaven will be near me when I think of You 
Heaven will be near me when I think of You 

Heaven will be near me 
Heaven will be near me 
Heaven will be near me when I think of You
