Song and Poem
by
Darlene Osborne

You were alone and hurting
Your mind in distress
You had tried so hard
Yeah, you had done your best
So when you had failed
You ask yourself why
Well, God was off in the distance
When He heard your distant cry

Chorus:
God was off in the distance
When He heard your distant cry
He saw you were hurting
And He rushed to your side
Although you can't see Him
He's standing close by
God was off in the distance
When He heard your distant cry

Trying to understand
Sometimes can be hard
There's nothing any worse
Than a broken heart
For medicine cannot heal
A lonely heart's sigh
Only God can heal
When He hears that distant cry

Repeat Chorus
