Fell on dark days, scared to lose
I cry for You
In Your arms, Lord, carry me through
I won't go without You
O Lord, You're closer than a brother
A friend that I can fall on
And O God of my salvation
Carried all my burdens on the cross
Greater love has no man
Than to die for his friend
When I was Your enemy
Lord, You came and died for me
O Lord, You're closer than a brother
A friend that I can fall on
And O God of my salvation
Carried all my burdens
And oh, You're closer than a brother
A friend that I can fall on
O God of my salvation
Carried all my burdens on the cross
