Craig Phillips - The Distance Lyrics

Broken up, on a road that felt like freedom
A rebel, headed anywhere but home
Adam s fall repeated in a moment
Captive at the edge of Eden s door
In the company of the angels
Reaching from a beautiful world
You could have waited, but

You couldn t stand,
You couldn t stand the distance
You wouldn t bare the silence anymore
Love broke the fall, bridged across to reach us
When you opened heavean s door
῾Cause you couldn t stand the distance

Close enough, to see the love I needed
A seeker, looking farther way back home
Underneath, the weight of what I ve wasted
While mercy, stood looking down the road
Than you ran to where I was waiting
And Your love crossed the canyon between us
You came to save me, ῾cause

So close to your mercy, and so far away
You rented me, You rented me forgiveness
And brace me and call me by name
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
