Lyrics:
A thousand steps from You, saying what’s the use No matter how I try, I slip and fall and don’t know why Time and time again, I run from You, trying to live I do it on my own, in a crowd but feel so alone (I wanna go back) I turn around, I see Your face, open arms for my embrace You were only one step away There is no yesterday, I look ahead without the pain You were only one step away I think of all I’ve done, I turn again to run How could You still love me, I’m someone I don’t want to be A whisper in my ear, says release all my fear Grace is here for you, the choice is yours, what will you do? (I wanna go back) Even though I slipped away, thank you God for saving grace You were only one step away

Behind the Song:
"Shaun came to me one day with a new hook on the piano. I loved it right away. It just so happened that I had been working on a lyrical idea but had not yet put it to music. The subject matter had been on my heart for a while. I was really burdened to write a song about the hope in Christ, even when we have fallen on our face. The music and lyrics seem to be the perfect fit, so we finished writing it together." - Shane Bowers (Julian Drive)
