Heaven Isn't Far

Jesus, sometimes it feels you're gone...

Child, I'm already holding on,
Never letting go of you,

Make me pure, certain, and true,
Why are you slipping away again?

Child, you just don't feel my hand,
My arms are graciously, widely spread,

Your blood is the wine, your body the bread,
You were the sacrifice that I might live,

So go, child, love mercy, forgive,
Show the world a little more of me,

Take this heart, Jesus, set me free,
When will I be home with you?

Patience, child, I'm coming soon,
Promise me you'll just hold on now,

Help me, Jesus, show me how,
I'm praying, I'm living, I'm dying for you,

Child, if you somehow knew,
You're pleasing your Father seated above,

Shower down grace, redemption, your love,
Teach me just how good you are,

Call on me always, child, heaven isn't far...
