Wilburn Brothers Lyrics

Move Up A Little Closer Lyrics
Oh how well I do remember back to old camp meetin' times

I lingered in the shadows to hide this face of mine

I could barely hear the preacher barely hear the olders pray

Then one night I heard the still small voice say

Move up a little closer don't hide in shadows

Come now and be counted with the children of the Lord

Move up a little closer climb high up the mountain

Move up a little closer to the kingdom of the Lord

[ piano ]

I pretended not to listen tried to close my burning ears

Although I'd been a sinner who wasted many years

So I turned to leave the meetin' but somehow I couldn't start

Once more I heard the voice in my heart

Move up a little closer...

[ dobro ]

I'm so thnakful for the message that was sent to me that night

I dawned by Christian armor and I bowed to spread the lights

Now when I see you sinner standing in the shadows dim

I bow my head and say this praer for him

Move up a little closer...
