"Can't Get There From Here"
-ZoaLinda


Here I stand and look
Across the distance from me to You.
To come into Your Grace,
I wonder what I can ever do.

On my own, I'm lost,
I'm standing here on a distant shore.
I want to come to You,
If only I could do something more.

Oh I can't get there from here,
Without Your Love drawing me near.
Lord, fill me with Your Love - show me what's true
That I may come to You.

(chorus)
Oh I can't get there from here,
My heart cries out to be with You,
There's nothing that I wouldn't do, oh...
I can't get there from here,
Without Your Love to show the way,
I wanna be with you every day,
But I can't get there from here...
Without Your Love.

When I think of You,
No greater Love has there ever been.
You gave Your Life for me,
Your precious blood took away my sin.

Your Love's become a bridge,
It spans from here to eternity.
Beyond all time and space,
Your arms open wide to welcome me.

Forgive me, Lord, I pray,
Now I know there is only one Way!
Lord, fill me with Your Love - show me what's true,
That I may come to You!

(chorus)
Oh I can't get there from here,
My heart cries out to be with You,
There's nothing that I wouldn't do, oh...
I can't get there from here,
Without Your Love to show the way,
I wanna be with you every day,
But I can't get there from here...
Without Your Love.

Oh I can't get there from here,
My heart cries out to be with You,
There's nothing that I wouldn't do, oh...
I can't get there from here,
Without Your Love to show the way,
I wanna be with you every day,
But I can't get there from here...
Without Your Love.

For it is by God's grace that you have been saved through faith. It is not the result of your own efforts, but God's gift...But now, in union with Christ Jesus you, who used to be far away, have been brought near by the sacrificial death of Christ.
(Ephesians 2:8,9 and 13, Today's English Version)
