Farther Father

Father, God
We often
Wonder where you are
Physical human beings
We rely on visuals
We're thinking physical logic beings
often times we forget that you're real
And why aren't you here
And why can't I see you
And why you're not here
Why, do I believe in you 
And why can't I touch you
And why can't I see you
You are by far...
Father you're
 Farther!!

I apolozie
I've opened my
Spiritual eyes
Wonder where you are
Physical human beings
We rely on visuals
We're thinking physical logic beings
Often times we forget that you're real
Now I realize it's better to acknowledge you
On this side of heaven in peace
I rather see and be at my God's mercy seat
Than to still be in my sins and be at His judgement seat
And why aren't you here
And why can't I see you
And why you're not here
Why, do I believe in you 
And why can't I touch you
And why can't I see you
You are by far...
Father you're
 Farther!!
