Never Far
Never Far ft Ore Macaulay
Dear Husband,
It's me your runaway bride.
Here to hand over her running shoes
again, hopefully for the last time.
I know you are acquainted with all my ways
so before you stop me, let me please explain.
You are a controlling husband, so I run.
Right from when I let you into my heart and we
were joined at the altar you have been my Lord.
You know my very hairs and count my every step.
When I run into the arms of my previous
lover- darkness, you are there in my adultery.
By the way, that only happened because
you didn't let me choose our asoebi colors.
You insisted hallelujah white and redemption blood red.
Your goodness and mercy stalkingly watch over me
Where can I flee from Your Spirit?
King David and I tried to find out.
But we couldn't.
I followed mother's footsteps instead of yours.
Eve explored, fell, ran and hid so I did.
The story hasn't changed since Eden, you still come looking for me.
Have you forgotten your bride is sick with pride making
it difficult for her to stay by your side even if she tried?
Like the prodigal son's prodigy,
straying from you made me feel lost and destitute
I brought you so much disrepute!
Yet for me, love was still in active pursuit.
My soul clings to the dust, I am out of reach.
This valley will swallow me, Lover can you hear me?
Maybe, just maybe your hands are too short to save me.
Have you cast me aside, do you not love me anymore?
No matter how far you go
You're never far
No matter how far you go
You're never far
As long as you can't run from the wind
Just know that you can't run from me
Never! Never! Never! Never!
No matter how far you go
You're never far
No matter how far you go
You're never far
Never! Never! Never! Never!
As long as you can't run from the wind
Just know that you can't run from me
You beckoned me home so here I am.
Your countenance is delightful at my
return, do you not see my stained white?
How can you wash me clean when my
self-righteousness could not in all its might?
I am barely two yards of wife material yet
you have sown me your robe of righteousness.
Bleeding symphonies of love, you sing over me with rejoicing.
You tell me I am worth the price.
Oh the overwhelming, never ending, reckless love of God.
It is fallacy to think I can outrun you
and devilish foolishness to reject your hold.
Runaway bride draw near, the veil was torn for you.
