Matthew West Unveils New Single “Be Close” — A Song of Comfort and Divine Nearness

Five-time GRAMMY® nominee and multi-award-winning singer-songwriter Matthew West releases his deeply moving new single, "Be Close," available now on all digital streaming platforms.
In a world overwhelmed by heartbreak, loss, and uncertainty, "Be Close" delivers a message of hope and assurance: that even in the darkest moments, God is near to the brokenhearted. Through his signature storytelling and heartfelt lyricism, West reminds listeners that divine presence is not distant or abstract, but intimate and personal - a source of peace when life feels unbearable.
"There's so much pain in the world right now - so many people walking through grief, questions, and heartache," West shares. "This song is a prayer that reminds us we're not alone. God is close to us, especially when we need Him most. That's the promise we cling to."
Built around a tender melody and West's emotive vocals, "Be Close" blends simplicity with depth, creating a sacred space for reflection and healing. The song continues West's tradition of crafting music that connects real stories with timeless faith, following recent fan favorites like "Don't Stop Praying" and "My Story Your Glory."
"Be Close" was written by Matthew West and produced by AJ Pruis. The single is accompanied by a heartfelt lyric video now streaming on West's official YouTube channel.
