So Close

(album: Stop & Listen - 2009)

I'm so close to being so far away from You
I was wrong, but it takes so much to say it to You
Like a broken husband and wife
Who never talk but share their nights
I'm so close to being so far away from You
I have nothing when I'm living apart from You
Outside, creation groans
To lose our darkness and be made whole

For my feet are close to slipping....
Speak to my heart in time....
You have promised, so I do believe....
You won't forget this wandering child....

Still, I'm so close to being so far away from You
Though I know no one on their own makes it through
My soul clings to the dust
So in Your life, let it be enough

I'm so foolish to believe that I can escape Your love....

For my feet were close to slipping....
You spoke to my heart in time....
You have promised, and I do believe....
You won't forget this wandering child....

You're so close when I feel far away from You
You're so close when I feel far away from You
