Lyrics

In the darkness when life seems so unfair.
When the shadows come, bringing on despair.
I need to trust You, not questioning Your will,
Help me to understand Your ways are higher still

In the distance… lies the answer
Though we may question reasons why,
We must try not to rely on our own understanding.

In the distance… lies the promise
That in the end for those who trust
Through the ashes and the dust
We’ll come through the darkest night shining…
In the distance.

In the quiet when I bow before Your throne,
Realizing that my life is not my own.
Hung in the balance of paradise and pain,
You lead me on to where I trust in You again…

In the distance… beyond the sorrow
There is joy and sweet release
There is laughter, there is peace
And a better, a better understanding.

In the distance… there is heaven
So let us place our hope in Him
Though for awhile it may be dim
We’ll come through the other side shining…

In the distance...
