You tired to run so that no one could desert you
Always looking for the perfect place to hide
You build up walls so that no one could ever hurt you
And yet the loneliness made you cry

Bridges all burned
No where to turn
But to Heaven

Miles and Miles away
Love saw you there
Stretched His hand to reach you
Across the lonely ocean of your tears
And He'll walk upon the waves
If that's what it takes to save you
Love doesn't have the heart to stay
Miles and miles away

He has the grace to cover any distance
Always looking for the lost and weary soul
But though he never stops offering forgiveness
And to the one to run, welcome home

Sorrow no more
Jesus is Lord!
Down from heaven

Miles and miles away
Love saw you there
Stretched His hand to reach you
Across the lonely ocean of your tears
And He'll walk upon the waves
If that's what it takes to save you
Love doesn't have the heart to stay
Miles and miles away

Through the day or night
Day or life
Could ever separate us
From the love the stands the ages

Miles and miles away
Love saw you there
Stretched His hand to reach you
Across the lonely ocean of your tears
And He'll walk upon the waves
If that's what it takes to save you
Love doesn't have the heart to stay
Miles and miles away
