Not Too Far From Here

Hilary Weeks


Somebody's down to thier 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 a tear 
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 
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 
Somebody's forgotten how to trust 
And somebody's dying for love 
Not too far from here 
Now I'm letting down my guard 
And I'm opening my heart 
Help me speak Your love to every needlful ear 
Someone is waiting not too far from here 
Someone is waiting not too far from here
