Lyrics

The city lights feel cold tonight The faces pass but none hold tight I walk through crowds yet still I see A quiet voice that speaks to me The letters fade the friends are gone But deep inside the fire burns on A spark of hope though small and weak It keeps me steady when I'm meek Far away yet not alone A guiding hand will lead me home Through the silence through the pain I find the strength to rise again The road is rough the night is long But in the dark I hear a song It tells of love it tells of grace A light that shines in every place Even when I lose my way Your gentle voice will always stay Closer than the air I breathe Your peace will never let me leave Far away yet not alone A guiding hand will lead me home Through the silence through the pain I find the strength to rise again

About this song

Mike's track title is exegetically dense. "Far Away, Yet Not Alone", the paradoxical reality of every son in crisis phases.

Psalm 139:7-8: "Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence? If I go up to the heavens, you are there; if I make my bed in the depths, you are there." The recurring assurance: "you are there".

Hebrews 13:5: "Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you." The double negation in English corresponds to the fivefold negation in the Greek original, an absolute reinforcement of the promise.

Mike's track is comfort for the generation that knows the feeling of distance. "Yet not alone" is a confession against perceived reality. Perception says: I am alone. Truth says: I am not alone. Yeshua is here.

Mike's sound carries this paradoxical truth: the vulnerability of the distance experience together with the certainty of the Father's nearness. Both without contradiction. That is sonship in sound form.
