seemed like 2006 was a year of a lot of trials....we can give in and crumble or use them to draw us closer to the Lord
Jereme Watson
hi..I am Jereme Watson...the band is just me
Story behind the song
let's see....the year 2006....dad passed away...then grandpa....then a good friend that led lynns mom to the Lord....i had surgery for cancer...our a/c unit went out at home and had to be replaced....my trucks windshield was busted....the clutch went out in the truck....need i keep going?....yes...i need to....i got to thinking that i can sometimes see the Lord's hand in the trials we go through guiding and directing me...sometimes, i think, i can almost see His hand bringing the trial to me....with what purpose?...to hopefully catch my attention and draw me closer to Him...to rely more on Him.....
Lyrics
Drawing Me Closer
Verse one
Hey, what’cha think You’re doing now?
I thought You were on my side.
Everything seemed to be going fine.
But You proved me wrong when….
I found the hand that was rocking me
Gently inside the cradle, now,
Is the same hand that I find is
Rocking my boat.
Pre-chorus
You say You’re drawing me closer?
It’s part of Your plan?
Well, I don’t understand it.
But, if it works just plan on….
Chorus
Drawing me closer, Lord.
I’ll be part of Your plan.
Keep drawing me closer,
Closer than I have been.
Lord, I can’t comprehend it.
My world’s shakin’ again.
But I’m starting to realize
It’s all in Your plan.
Verse two
I find this hand is leading me.
It’s guiding me onward now.
Takes me safely, forever
Into parts unknown.
We go past places I have been,
All comfort’s wearing thin,
When once again You take me
Right into a storm!
Pre-Chorus
Chorus
Bridge
Lord, I do realize
It’s not always Your hand
That’s causing this turmoil.
But, I know it’s Your plan to…. keep…..
Chorus
