Confidant
Stacie Orrico · Genuine
And my thoughts drift across the day
There's a feeling I am holding tight
And I'm thankful that you're just a prayer away
I've been longing for the One who shares my heart
Chorus:
Come a little closer
Have I told You
You're my confidant
All the things that I dream
Resting on Your shoulder
Is what I do
You're my confidant
You're the one who comforts me
It's so hard in this shallow age
To find a more faithful friend
When I call on Your sweet name
You're right beside me, and You stay until the end
Chorus:
Come a little closer
Have I told You
You're my confidant
All the things that I feel
Resting on Your shoulder
Is what I do
You're my confidant
And I know You are here
Oh, You're careful with all my secrets
I tell You my heart whatever I feel
With You I know I can be real
You know what I'll say before I start
You're the keeper of my heart
Yes You are
You're my confidant
I know You are listening
I see Your face and have no fear
Inside my heart I'll let You see
You can keep my secret
