Lyrics: Not Far From Me by Anthonia
Chorus:
I’ve never seen you, Lord
But you’re not far away from me (2x)
I’ve never seen you, Lord
but you’re not far away from my family
I’ve never seen you, Lord
But you’re not far away from me
You are still the same as yesterday
Today and forever
I’ve never seen you, Lord
But you’re not far away from me
(Oh! I’ve never seen you, Lord)
Chorus:
I’ve never seen you, Lord
But you’re not far away from me (2x)
You’re still the same yesterday today and forever
I’ve never seen you, Lord
but you’re not far away from me
You’re not far, far away
You’re always near, near to me
You are the one that my soul longs for
I’ve never seen you Lord, nor touch you
but you are always there, there for me.
I have no doubt, I have no doubt
That you’re not far away from me
You brought me out of Miry clay
Set my feet on the Rock I stand
My soul deeply wounded but now
Pain and shame are gone forever
Even if a mother forgets her suckling child
You will always have compassion on me, oh
There’s an assurance that
You are not far away from me
(I have never seen you, Lord)
Chorus:
I’ve never seen you, Lord
But you’re not far away from me (2x)
My hiding place, My defender
My Comforter, My Saviour
You’re no no
You’re not far away, you’re not far away
Oh my massive rock of ages
God of Justice ooo. Yeeh heeei
(You’re never far away from me Lord)
Chorus:
I’ve never seen you, Lord
But you’re not far away from me (2x)
Yamadabo shedayababo yegedebo shatayama
Lebro sekelebro libro semadaba dadabo shantayamaaa
No no no I’ve never seen you, Lord
You’re not far you’re not far
You’re not far away from me Lord yeah
Masakayaba yengelebo sengelebo yegebo santayam
Today and forever, I’ve never seen you Lord
But you’re not far away from me
