Jesus At A Distance lyrics

I’ve been keeping Jesus at a distance 

So afraid to let Him get too close 

To the two lives I’ve been living 

As if He couldn’t see them both 

Close enough to feel the warmth of the fire 

Far enough away for me to hide 

But I’m tired of walking the wire 

Between the darkness and the light 

No more Jesus at a distance 

No more pushing You away 

I don’t wanna settle for the back row 

Of some Sunday morning faith 

So I’m holding nothing back now 

Causing there’s nothing You don’t see 

No more Jesus at a distance 

Come change every part of me 

Every part of me 

I was offered resurrection 

But I settled for the grave 

I had the chance to walk on water 

But I chose to play it safe 

I’ve been hiding from the Healer 

I thought my wounds were out of reach 

But at the end of all my running 

You’re still running after me 

So no more Jesus at a distance 

No more pushing You away 

I don’t wanna settle for the back row 

Of some Sunday morning faith 

So I’m holding nothing back now 

Causing there’s nothing You don’t see 

No more Jesus at a distance 

Come change every part of me 

Every part of me 

Oooo, ooooo 

Oooo, ooooo 

All my dreams and all my treasures 

(Every part of me, every part of me) 

When I can barely hold it together 

(Every part of me, every part of me) 

When I can’t control where tomorrow’s going 

(Every part of me, every part of me) 

When the ghost of my yesterdays come calling 

(Every part of me, every part of me) 

Who I am when there’s no one else around 

(Every part of me, every part of me) 

When the sun comes up, til the sun goes down 

(Every part of me, every part of me) 

So no more Jesus at a distance 

No more pushing You away 

I don’t wanna settle for the back row 

Of some Sunday morning faith 

So I’m holding nothing back now 

Causing there’s nothing You don’t see 

No more Jesus at a distance 

Come change every part of me 

Every part of me 

Oooo, every part of me, every part of me 

Oooo, every part of me 

So I’m holding nothing back now 

Cause there’s nothing you don’t see 

No more Jesus at a distance 

Come change every part of me 

No more Jesus at a distance 

Come change every part of me
