Thousand Steps

With one eye open I saw her slowing start to stand
Her trembling hands wiped her tears away
She looked so tired and broken
She never lifts her head, she softly says, I can't make it through another day
I'm as far away from God as I can be
Is there any way that He still loves me
Can He still love me
If there were a thousand steps between you and God
And you could see no way across the great divide
Just take one step towards His loving arms
And He'll take nine hundred and ninety-nine
He slips into the back door and he straightens up his tie
His bloodshot eyes tell of the night before
He comes here every Sunday, but his life is never changed
He's played the game but he knows there's something more
I'm so close but still so far away
I can't live like this another day
Not another day
If there were a thousand steps between you and God
And you could see no way across the great divide
Just take one step towards His loving arms
And He'll take nine hundred and ninety-nine
Maybe you think that there's a place you can go and He won't be there
He won't even care
Didn't you know that there is no depth or height to keep us from
His amazing love
If there were a thousand steps between you and God
And you could see no way across the great divide
Just take one step towards His loving arms
And He'll take nine hundred and ninety-nine
He'll take nine hundred and ninety-nine
Nine hundred and ninety-nine
Take one step
