Lyrics

I see a spark across the night A gentle glow a quiet light It calls me on though far away It breaks the dark it shows the way The steps are weak the road still long Yet in my chest a steady song A voice that whispers dont let go The light ahead will surely grow Light in the distance shining for me Guiding my steps through the stormy sea Even in shadows I hear your call Light in the distance stronger than all Through every doubt through every tear A brighter dawn is drawing near I walk with hope I wont turn back Your light is here along my track Not by my strength but by your grace I see the future in your face The night is fading the day will rise Your light is burning in my eyes Light in the distance shining for me Guiding my steps through the stormy sea Even in shadows I hear your call Light in the distance stronger than all

About this song

Isaiah 9:2: "The people walking in darkness have seen a great light; on those living in the land of deep darkness a light has dawned."

Mike's track title "Light in the Distance" carries both spatial and temporal meaning. The light is still far, but it is coming.

Matthew 4:16 quotes Isaiah: "The people living in darkness have seen a great light; on those living in the land of the shadow of death a light has dawned." Yeshua's appearing in Galilee fulfilled this promise.

The word "hope" here is not only wish, not only expectation. It is substantial hope, translated in the New Testament as elpís (ἐλπίς). "Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a longing fulfilled is a tree of life" (Proverbs 13:12).

Mike's track is the musical application of this hope reality. In the night (Track 4) light becomes visible (Track 5). Still in the distance, but real. Growing. Coming closer. Mike's sound carries this hope movement as a bridge from darkness to light.
