PRECIOUS ARE THE MOMENTS
When I know that You are very near
Precious are these moments
As You meet me here
As You meet me here
Treasured are the moments
When I know that You are very near
Treasured are these moments
As You meet me here
As You meet me here
Here with You
Here with You
Your loving arms are holding me
Safe with You
Safe with You
There’s nowhere else I’d rather be
