Verse 1:
It’s a lonely day, grey rain grey sky
I look through my window, watch the day passing by
And I think that if I had wings I would fly
Away, far away from here
They say You’re close with me but it feels so far
And sometimes I’m not even sure who You are
And it’s like looking at a shooting star
So beautiful, but it soon disappears
Chorus:
But I know You love me, and You’re always here
Your endless love cuts through my fear
And though You seem far now I know You’re near
Right here in my heart
Verse 2:
Your love I know is always with me
But sometimes I find it hard to see
So I know that faith is the only key
The key, to get me through
I get on my knees and start to pray
And though You, Lord, still seem far away
I can say the words I found hard to say,
“Lord, I love You.’
And I know You love me, and You’re always here
Your endless love cuts through my fear
And though You seem far now I know You’re near
Right here in my heart
Right here in my heart

This is a song that I wrote when I was a teenager. Often I wrote songs when I felt a bit sad or lonely. It’s about how sometimes God can seem far away when we feel alone, but He’s actually really close. He never leaves us.
