Lyrics
Verse 1:
Sunshine walk and rainy day
Put together these scenes seem so strange
Sometimes things may look easy here
Could be easy to miss the inner fear
Pre-Chorus:
Easy for one but not the other
When trials come for sister and brother
These times must be so hard to face
Either way
Chorus:
So often I forget
What it's like for you
My friend
Brother, sister
Far from view
'Round the world
When you need help, too
When you need help, too
Verse 2:
But in your life far, far away
Is it hard to not turn irate?
When we seem to not know your ways
Maybe you have more faith like distant days
(Pre-Chorus)
(Chorus)
Bridge:
Still precious in His sight
Even when this world's passed you by
Trusting in Him through thick and thin
Come on, let's find true rest in Him
Our true rest in Him
(Chorus)
Ending:
No longer far, far from view
When there's more time, time with you
And with the One who loves us
Both here in the now
And there in the then
When this life's done
It's hard to say when
But if we're in Jesus
We'll meet again
You and me, friend,
We can count on Him
(Pre-Chorus)
Tag:
No longer far from view...
When we're safe with You
Sunshine walk and rainy day
Put together these scenes seem so strange
Sometimes things may look easy here
Could be easy to miss the inner fear
Pre-Chorus:
Easy for one but not the other
When trials come for sister and brother
These times must be so hard to face
Either way
Chorus:
So often I forget
What it's like for you
My friend
Brother, sister
Far from view
'Round the world
When you need help, too
When you need help, too
Verse 2:
But in your life far, far away
Is it hard to not turn irate?
When we seem to not know your ways
Maybe you have more faith like distant days
(Pre-Chorus)
(Chorus)
Bridge:
Still precious in His sight
Even when this world's passed you by
Trusting in Him through thick and thin
Come on, let's find true rest in Him
Our true rest in Him
(Chorus)
Ending:
No longer far, far from view
When there's more time, time with you
And with the One who loves us
Both here in the now
And there in the then
When this life's done
It's hard to say when
But if we're in Jesus
We'll meet again
You and me, friend,
We can count on Him
(Pre-Chorus)
