Jesus at a Distance

Lyrics
I been keepin' Jesus at a distance, so afraid to let Him get too close To the two lives I've been livin', as if He couldn't see them both Close enough to feel the warmth of the fire, far enough away for me to hide But I'm tired of walkin' the wire between the darkness and the light No more Jesus at a distance, no more pushin' You away I don't wanna settle for the back row of some Sunday mornin' faith So I'm holdin' nothin' back now, 'cause there' nothin' You don't see No more Jesus at a distance, come change every part of me Every part of me I was offered resurrection, but I settled for the grave I had the chance to walk on water, but I chose to play it safe I've been hiding from the Healer, I thought my wounds were out of reach But at the end of all my runnin', You're still runnin' after me So, no more Jesus at a distance, no more pushin' You away I don't wanna settle for the back row of some Sunday mornin' faith So, I'm holdin' nothin' back now, 'cause there' nothin' You don't see No more Jesus at a distance, come change every part of me Every part of me All my dreams and all my treasures (Every part of me, every part of me) When I can barely hold it together (Every part of me, every part of me) When I can't control where tomorrow's goin' (Every part of me, every part of me) When the ghost of my yesterday's come callin' (Every part of me, every part of me) Who I am when there's no one else around (Every part of me, every part of me) When the sun comes up 'til the sun goes down (Every part of me, every part of me) So, no more Jesus at a distance, no more pushin' You away I don't wanna settle for the back row of some Sunday mornin' faith So I'm holdin' nothin' back now, 'cause there' nothin' You don't see No more Jesus at a distance, come change every part of me Every part of me, every part of me (Every part of me) Every part of me So I'm holdin' nothin' back now, 'cause there' nothin' You don't see No more Jesus at a distance, come change every part of me No more Jesus at a distance, come change every part of me
