Close to You – Here and Now / massl-music

This English worship song grew from my German original “Nah bei Dir – mitten im Jetzt,” rooted in Psalm 73:28, John 15, and Matthew 11:28 — out of the wonder that Jesus’ nearness transforms our hearts right here and today. It is a song for everyday life: for each moment we sense that His peace sustains us, His joy renews us, and His love widens our lives in the here and now.

Close to You – Here and Now

Verse 1
Jesus, with You my soul can breathe,
and every day begins to shine anew.
You fill my heart with lasting peace.
You know me fully, deep inside,
and give me courage for each new morning.
In Your presence my life opens wide,
and my steps find strength and steady ground.

Pre-Chorus
You speak trust into my heart
and show me paths of light and peace.
Your gentle call renews my soul,
Your word brings freedom to my everyday life.

Chorus
Close to You – here and now,
my heart is made new again.
Close to You – I feel Your love.
Jesus, You remain – forever my YES.
Close to You – my heart sings out loud.
Close to You – everything feels familiar.

Verse 2
Jesus, You fill my heart with quiet wonders,
and Your joy carries me forward.
With You, life begins to truly sound alive.
You give me rest when thoughts are drifting,
and You keep me safe within Your love.
You are the reason my heart sings again,
for Your goodness carries me day by day.

Pre-Chorus
You open doors I could not see,
and Your goodness stays close every day.
Your light breaks through the shadows in me,
and every worry fades away with You.

Chorus
Close to You – here and now,
my heart is made new again.
Close to You – I feel Your love.
Jesus, You remain – forever my YES.
Close to You – my heart sings out loud.
Close to You – everything feels familiar.

Bridge
You are the joy that moves my heart.
You are the love that never ends.
You are the peace that carries deeper.
Jesus, my anchor, alive forever.
You are the strength that sets my heart on fire.
You are the reason I was made whole.

Final Chorus
Close to You – here and now,
my heart is made new again.
Close to You – I feel Your love.
Jesus, You remain – forever my YES.
Close to You – my heart sings out loud.
Close to You – everything feels familiar.
