Almost there!

I must be getting close 

Maybe I have done something right 

Or I have pushed the right string

I can smell it — like I’m almost there.

---

I must be getting close 

Situations are pushing me to extremes.

All of a sudden I’m considering risking it all

Like I’m one fatal mistake away.

---

I must be getting close

Why is giving up looking like my best option?

Why is uncertainty screaming the loudest ?

Why is my past trying so hard to lay hold on me?

---

I must be getting close 

And God’s mercy is speaking for me.

Even when I cannot pray 

His grace makes sure, I’m not the enemy’s prey.

---

I must be getting close 

So when my mind tell me I’m backwards

And when reality reminds me of my situation 

I’ll speak God’s word to my weary soul.

---

I must be getting close 

I’ll rest under the shadow of the Almighty 

He’ll rescue from every trap

When I call on Him, He’ll answer me.
