It’s Sunday once again
The silence feels so near
I drown in heavy thoughts
Because I can’t be with you
This distance between us
That seems impossible to break
It pulls me down
There’s nothing I can do for us

If only we could take some steps
And meet halfway
Hope can drive the darkness out
So healing can begin
If we could reach out our hands
So this pain would fade away
That a new time may find us
And the beauty of love prevail

We’re standing far apart
And hear so many stories
Of a God of mercy
Searched for since forever
But if we feel the same Spirit
That surrounds us all
How can it be that we lose
Ourselves in hate
The answer lies so near

If only we could take some steps
And meet halfway
Hope can drive the darkness out
So healing can begin
If we could reach out our hands
So this pain would fade away
That a new time may find us
And the power of love prevail

I know it’s so very hard
To ask for forgiveness
And to say what we need
Why are we so merciless
Every word of the other
Feels wrong
Yet truth has many sides
Why are we so merciless
Trapped in bitter strife

When will we finally be ready

We can take these steps
And meet halfway
Hope can drive the darkness out
And healing will begin
Now we reach out our hands
So this pain will fade away
That a new time may find us
And the beauty of love prevail

We can take these steps
And meet halfway
Hope can drive the darkness out
And healing will begin
Now we reach out our hands
So this pain will fade away
That a new time may find us
And the beauty of love prevail
