Petra - Just Reach Out lyrics

rate me

Words and music by John Schlitt and Rick Gootee

Based on Psalm 34:16-18, Romans 10:9-13

Sometimes the night seems to go on for days

When it's hard to see the light through the darkness and haze

While the world around you makes you feel out of place

And the burdens that you carry are just too hard to face

(Chorus)

Just reach out and He'll reach in

Take your broken heart and make it whole again

It don't matter who you are or where you've been

Just reach out, and He'll reach in

Standing in a crowd, but still all alone

Crying out for answers that nobody knows

Everybody's busy looking out for themselves

Is there anyone who really cares about anyone else?

You say you've walked ten thousand steps away

But don't you know that it's only one step back?

Because the One who hears you when you pray

Is the One who's there beside you

And He'll never walk away
