Lord I need to feel your touch
That alone will soothe my soul
I need to place my hand in yours
You know this life can take its toll
Abba I need a hug from you
In your sheltering arms I would hide
To feel your arms around my heart
As you take me to your side
To find that holy place of rest
To feel the warmth of your embrace
To place my head upon God’s breast
And rest there in that secret place
Hold me close to your heart
So I can feel it beat
Hear its rhythm join with mine
And I am made complete.
