A World Away

A World Away
Doug Beiden

I reach through the morning mist
Open then I close my fist
And hold a ray of sunlight in my hand
The sky begins right at my feet
Clouds escape from underneath
As I remember that You’re here
Every where I ever am

Surrounded by Your love
I'm still not close enough
'Cause I am a world away
So close and still so far
I stand on a spinning star
A world away from You

I reach down inside my heart
And try to know just who You are
And listen to You whisper in my soul
Your presence is the only thing that
Lifts me up and draws me in
I look to You to guide me through
Every where I ever go

Surrounded by Your love
I'm still not close enough
'Cause I am a world away
So close and still so far
I stand on a spinning star
A world away from You

I’ll be here waiting for the day
When these hands can finally touch Your face
Waiting for the day

Surrounded by Your love
I'm still not close enough
'Cause I am a world away
So close and still so far
I stand on a spinning star
A world away from You
Surrounded by Your love
I'm still not close enough
'Cause I am a world away
So close and still so far
I stand on a spinning star
A world away from You
