Reach Out
© Mitch Townley/Tim Wilson 2004
(v1)
Stretched out on the cross, Oh
The Lord was reaching out
His death brought fear, confusion
The resurrection; joy and doubt
He’d walk with His disciples
For the next forty days
Speak words of calm assurance
As to all of them He’d say….
(chorus 2)
Reach out…search the wounds that mark my death
Reach out….hold onto my promises
Reach out now to.know me…..
Feel the life within my breath
You’ll find within this moment
I’m reaching out again
(v2)
Wond’ring as I’m walking
Down my Emmaus road
If I’ve been abandoned
To find a way out on my own
When I feel Spirit’s presence
Filling me up inside
Oh, It whispers through the wind
Speaks to me the Lord’s reply
(repeat chorus)
Bridge:
Never alone, never abandoned
Never lost, we can be heard
Never too far for His hand to touch
When we hold on to His words
(repeat chorus)
