There's something in your yesterday That's keeping you away from him Making you believe what you've done He won't forgive Telling you that you're just too far from him But there is something he wants you to know... That there's no road that you can travel To a place that's too far He's so close he can hear you breathing He's so near he can wipe your tears Mend your heart, he knows it's been broken He's standing with his arms wide open For so long he's been waiting, Every day anticipating For you to realize that he's so close to you Everybody knows sometimes we all make mistakes And when you try to do what's right Wrong gets in your way You feel your just a failure and you can't forgive yourself But God can make it better if you only ask for help That there's no road that you can travel to a place that's too far He's so close he can hear you breathing He's so near he can wipe your tears Mend your heart, he knows it's been broken He's standing with his arms wide open For so long he's been waiting, Every day anticipating For you to realize that he's so close to you
