Hi there! Does anyone have the chords to "The closer I get to the cross"? It's the one that says...the closer I get to the cross, the more I clearly see, the holiness of you and the sinfulness in me...

Thank you to anyone who can post the chords for me!

The Closer I Get to the Cross
(Scott Krippayne/John Lemonis/Tony Wood)

There is safety in the distance where it's out of sight and mind, Where life is unexamined for fear of what I'll find. And once again in solitude, my soul is unfulfilled, But I press through the crowd and step toward the hill.

Chorus
The closer I get to the cross, the more I clearly see The holiness of You and the sinfulness in me. There's a beauty in the agony that draws me to this place. The closer I get to the cross, the more amazed I am by grace.

There are times I want to turn my head so I don't have to face the truth Of everything You've done for me and what I've done to You. But here my eyes are opened and it breaks my heart to know Just how deep the roots of all my failures grow.

Chorus

Bridge Draw me nearer, nearer, Blessed Lord, to the cross where Thou hast died. Draw me nearer, nearer, Blessed Lord, to Thy precious bleeding side.

Chorus
