Not Too Far From Here

Not Too Far From Here

Somebody’s down to their last dime

Somebody’s running out of time

Not too far from here

Somebody’s got nowhere else to go

Somebody needs a little hope

Not too far from here

 

And I may not know their name

But I’m praying just the same

That You’ll use me, Lord

To wipe away the tears

‘Cause somebody’s crying Not too far from here

 

Somebody’s troubled and confused

Somebody’s got nothing left to lose

Not too far from here

Somebody’s forgotten how to trust

And somebody’s dying for love

Not too far from here

 

It may be a stranger’s face

But I’m praying for Your grace

To move in me

And take away the fear

‘Cause somebody’s hurting

Not too far from here

 

Help me, Lord, not to turn away from pain

Help me not to rest, while those around me weep

Give me Your strength and compassion

When somebody finds, the road of life too steep

 

Somebody’s troubled and confused

Somebody’s got nothing left to lose

Not too far from here (Not too far)

Somebody’s forgotten how to trust

And somebody’s dying for love

Not too far from here (Not too far)

 

Now I’m letting down my guard

And I’m opening my heart

Help me speak Your love

To every needful ear

Someone is waiting

Not too far from here (Not too far)

 

Someone is waiting (Waiting)

Not too far from here
