When years seem like days to me,
No time on my hands
I run away to a place in me to a faraway land

When home seems so far from me,
Heaven's lights grow dim
It's just as far as my deepest heart,
Where my heart's father lives
His quiet voice speaking in silence every day,
If I will only listen to the words he has to say
I'll walk in his spirit and see him in my face
I will live cause he will live in my place

When life seem so hard to bear,
When shadows look real
The circumstance is your father's care,
Don't find faith by what you feel
If you have been running too,
Stop now in your tracks
Turn again to the one in you,
And put your burdens on his back

His quiet voice speaking in silence every day,
If I will only listen to the words he has to say
I'll walk in his spirit and see him in your face
I will live cause he will live in my place

When years seem like days to me,
no time on my hands
I run away to a place in me to a faraway land
