JUST A LITTLE FARTHER

Just a little farther

Go a little farther
Your face will hit the ground
That sound you hear
Is no one else is around

It is alone that you’ll be found
It’s a place that’s full of dread
Make no mistake
You’ve found the place of death

What is sacrificed is will
A precious and deadly thing
It’s surrender and demise
Oh what an exquisite sting

Oh death where is that sting
I know now that I’m not alone
He went before me
Took all our pain to atone

Now all of me
Is found in the all of Him
Made anew in His pain
And made clean from within

Just a little farther
A place alone and still
Not as I will
Your will…it is done.
