Story behind the song
This song came to me when I was feeling lost in my faith. The song did not have a real direction to it.
Shortly after writing it, a friend's brother passed away too soon, leaving behind a wife and three young daughters. Another friend lost her 2 year old son. I pray that it comforted them in some way.
The beginning of the song seems to come from different perspectives for different people, basically saying that the one who you are missing is still there in your heart. But nearing the end of the song, you realize it is God calling you back to Him, that He is there, when it's too hard to believe and when some things just shouldn't be.
Everyone seems to find a little of themselves in the lyrics, and realize that God is calling us all closer to Him.
Lyrics
We used to walk side by side together
Chasing butterflies and flowers in the spring
I held you close and kept you safe in stormy weather
I dance when your heart starts to sing.
But it seems to me that somehow as you grew
Too often I'd be hearing less and less of you
Always chasing something, finding not enough
Looking for that special love.
I'm here
right where I've always been
I'd hush the greatest praises to hear you voice again
I'd move the highest mountain to get to where you are
If you need Me, just look inside your heart
I'm here.
I see you walking, wondering what it is you've missed
Blindly thinking that there must be more than this
Can't you hear My whisper echo in your soul
And hear My voice like long ago
I'm here
right where I've always been
I'd hush the greatest praises to hear you voice again
I'd move the highest mountain to get to where you are
If you need Me, just look inside your heart
I'm here
When its too hard to believe
I'm here
When somethings shouldn't be
I'm here
Just when you need Me most
I love you child, and I want you to know
I'm here
right where I've always been
I'd hush the greatest praises to hear you voice again
I'd move the highest mountain to get to where you are
If you need Me, just look inside your heart
I'm here.
I'm here.
