Lyrics
Father God, let your kingdom come
Sovereign Lord, let your will be done
I trust you more than anyone
Your faithfulness like the rising sun
Spirit come have your way in me
Give me ears to hear, give me eyes to see
Show me who I'm supposed to be
Without you I am incomplete
I find you, I find you
When I seek you with my whole heart
Seek you with my whole heart
And I find you, I find you
When I seek you with my whole heart
Seek you with my whole heart
And I find that You have never left my side
Even when I felt so far away
You were always there with me
I can't be silent
When I think about your faithfulness to me
You're not far away
You are with me here and now
And there's nothing that can separate me
I cannot be separated
From your love
So I come boldly to the throne of grace
In worship
You're not far away
You are with me here and now
And there's nothing that can separate me
I cannot be separated
From your love
So I come boldly to the throne of grace
To seek your face, my God
My God
Father God, let your kingdom come
Sovereign Lord, let your will be done
I trust you more than anyone
Your faithfulness like the rising sun
I find you, I find you
When I seek you with my whole heart
Seek you with my whole heart
And I find you, oh I find you
When I seek you with my whole heart
Seek you with my whole heart

Meaning & Inspiration
Far Away centers on prayerful confidence in the nearness and faithfulness of God. Its opening petitions echo the language of the kingdom and divine will, while the request for ears to hear and eyes to see expresses dependence on the Spirit. The repeated search for God with a whole heart gives the song a clear devotional focus rather than treating faith as a distant idea.
The later lines move from uncertainty to assurance. God has remained present even when distance seemed real, and divine love cannot be broken by circumstance. The image of approaching the throne of grace connects worship with confidence in mercy, while the refrain answers the title with the declaration that God is present here and now. Together, these themes portray worship as a response to steadfast love: seeking God, remembering past faithfulness, and resting in a presence that does not abandon the believer.
