WHAT IS STANDING BETWEEN YOU AND ME

[The heart cry of intercessors in the House of Prayer]

A little bit closer
A little bit nearer
That’s all I desire
That’s all my soul yearns

Why not now
Why not soon
It never felt so long
It never felt so parched and dry

You have stolen my heart
You have ruined me with Your love
You are all that I want now
Nothing else can satisfy

No other loves
No other thrones
Can ever take Your place
Can ever exalt itself against the beautiful One

My eyes gaze in lovesickness
Amazed at Your fascinating beauty
My heart’s ravished
With just one glance of Your eyes

So I run after You
Out of the depths of my heart I cry out to You
Can You hear my desperate plea
Will you turn and show me Your face

What is standing between You and me?
What is standing in the way?
How long more do I have to wait?
How can I reach the place near to Your heart?

I’ll do what it takes
I’ll give all I have
Just to be near
Just to hear You once again

So with clean hands
I come to You
With a pure heart
I seek You

With a heart that says yes
I earnestly seek You
In a dry and weary land
I thirst for You

And You slowly turned
As if You could not hold back any longer
You turned around
And You waited for me

I ran with the fastest speed
I ran with all my might
I threw off everything that hinders
And every sin that entangles

I fell right into Your side
And felt the scars of Your sacrifice
I fell right into your loving embrace
And heard the beat of Your heart

I will never let You go
I will never give You rest
For that’s the place that I seek to dwell
For that’s what I’ve always been longing for

Where you go
I will follow
Where you leap
I will skip with You

Commander of the army
Lord of host
I say yes
Let nothing stand between You and me… ever again…
