So Far Away

Verse 1
How can I call You father
When I have turned my back again?

Said I wouldn’t make the same mistakes twice
I did right there; that was a lie
So far from perfection
Have I really come very far?
I’ve been a poor reflection
Of who You are

Chorus
Can You accept this child?
For I have strayed so far away
From things above
You have turned my eyes from darkness
And have let me see
And split the curtain to Your holy place
Just to be with me

Verse 2
How can I claim to know You
When I so seldom read Your words?
And Your cries to me
So often go unheard
I fall, I fall
I’ve fallen
So short of You
