In this world of looking out for number one
We're expected to handle life on our own
Remember when you're in doubt
There's someone to help you out
With God you're really not alone

Chorus

The more you lean on Him
The more He'll let you lean
The more you focus your eyes on Him
The more that you will see
The more you give to Him
The more you will receive
You've got to give up your life
To gain eternity
And this much I know is true
Come near to God; and He'll come near to you


Sometimes it seems Satan's after you
And you don't know where to run
But the blood of Christ, you see
Has already guaranteed
That the battle has been won

Chorus

The more you lean on Him
The more He'll let you lean
The more you focus your eyes on Him
The more that you will see
The more you give to Him
The more you will receive
You've got to give up your life
To gain eternity
And this much I know is true
Come near to God; and He'll come near to you
