I once lost my way
Forgot how to get on my knees and pray
I always knew what to do
I could count on the Lord’s word being true
It felt like overnight
God was a stranger in my life
Chorus
It’s not a far cry to the Lord
Just reach out he’ll take your hand
When you’re lost out on your own
You’re still his child he wants you home
I fell back in the world
You can’t serve the Lord and look for pearls
I drifted in the night
Like a ship far away from any light
I cried out Father please
I felt his spirit touching me
It’s not a far cry to the Lord
He hears your voice out in the night
Take a step you’re not alone
Straight ahead you’re almost home
There’s nothing you can do
To make the Lord turn away from you
He paid for what you’ve done
He took your sins to the cross on which he hung
You find it hard to see
I know because he rescued me
Repeat Chorus
