Lirieke: Mary Mary. Incredible. So Close.
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
'Cause 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, everyday 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 you way
You feel you're just a failure and you can't forgive yourself
But God can make it better if you only ask for help
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
Standing with His arms wide open
For so long He's been waiting, everyday anticipating
For you to realize that He's so close to you
There's no road that you can travel to
A place that's too far
'Cause 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
Standing with His arms wide open
For so long He's been waiting, everyday anticipating
For you to realize that He's so close to you
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
'Cause 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, everyday 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 you way
You feel you're just a failure and you can't forgive yourself
But God can make it better if you only ask for help
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
Standing with His arms wide open
