First single from our upcoming record. Enjoy! Took months of editing and re-working to find the purest form of this song. The simplest, most fundamental ideas are usually the hardest to capture. I'm just not interested in lofty ideas anymore.. I want to get back to basics...

LYRICS:
You are not far
You are not so far from me
You are not far
When I open up my eyes to see
You’re drawing every breath
Compelling every heart to beat
You are not far
You are not so far from me

In You I live and dream
In You my very being
In You I wait or move
In You I breathe and sing


These words and ideas are directly from Acts 17... Paul's speech to the people of Athens:
“The God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and does not live in temples built by human hands. And he is not served by human hands, as if he needed anything. Rather, he himself gives everyone life and breath and everything else. From one man he made all the nations, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he marked out their appointed times in history and the boundaries of their lands. God did this so that they would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from any one of us. ‘For in him we live and move and have our being.’ As some of your own poets have said, ‘We are his offspring.’ "
