I Feel Closer to Heaven Everyday

There's a new feeling abiding within me

It's the bless of truth of knowing I am free

It's the love of my dear lord and the power in his word

Guiding me from where I am to eternity

I feel closer to heaven every day

And I get one step higher when I pray

I'm so close truly I will never stray

I feel closer to heaven everyday

Well I know that this old soul has been reborn

Had my eyes above it to the light of dawn

Darkness had to take its flight,

Then he filled my eyes with light

That's the reason I'm singing this happy song

[Chorus] x 2

I feel closer to heaven every day

And I get one step higher when I pray

I'm so close truly I will never stray

I feel closer to heaven everyday

I feel closer to heaven everyday.
