The Lyrics:
Sometimes the night seems to go on for days
When it's hard to see the light through the darkness and haze
While the world around you makes you feel out of place
And the burdens that you carry are just too hard to face
Just reach out and He'll reach in
Take your broken heart and make it whole again
It don't matter who you are or where you've been
Just reach out, and He'll reach in
Standing in a crowd, but still all alone
Crying out for answers that nobody knows
Everybody's busy looking out for themselves
Is there anyone who really cares about anyone else?
You say you've walked ten thousand steps away
But don't you know that it's only one step back?
Because the One who hears you when you pray
Is the One who's there beside you
And He'll never walk away
Reflection:
So many of these lyrics speak out to me. This song is about hitting rock bottom and reaching out to find hope. A journey i have been on many times before. This song reminds me that God will come to me if I just ask, He is right there waiting for me to open the door. I can run as far as I want but he is still there waiting for. For me I feel like I have run a marathon in place, this song reminds me all I need to do is take ONE step back toward God. For me it may take me making that one step back a thousand times, but He is still there. I am trying to figure out where to go from here, but I should be taking my step back and allowing God to show me. This advent, the season of Hope, I realize that God is my Hope, only with Him can I know my path.
