Lyrics
How long has it been since you talked to Jesus
How long since you'v e seen His face
He's longing to heal and He's longing to feel
You at rest in His arms at last
Things people say seem to turn you away
Seems no one's real they don't mean what they say
Ooooohhh Na Na Na Na Na
There are times when you're low
And you're longing to know
If He's there, if He cares just for you
No hope, no trust, no love in your heart
Only fear when your healing is near
Don't let pride prevent you today
To receive the touch that will change your life
Oooooohhh Na Na Na Na Na
Oh another, yes another, Oh another
Touch of Your Hand

Meaning & Inspiration
“Another Touch” portrays spiritual weariness alongside an invitation to seek Christ again. The opening questions describe distance from prayer and a longing for reassurance, while the references to healing and rest present Jesus as compassionate and near. Rather than ignoring discouragement, the lyric names mistrust, fear, and disappointment as barriers that can leave a person feeling isolated.
The repeated request for another touch becomes a prayer for renewed faith and restoration. Its picture of rest in Christ’s arms is consistent with Matthew 11:28, where the weary are invited to come to him for rest. The song’s concern with fear and divine nearness also recalls Psalm 34:18, which describes the Lord as close to the brokenhearted. By urging humility instead of pride, the lyric frames receiving help as an act of trust. The closing appeal does not offer a detailed explanation of suffering; it directs attention toward Christ’s care and the possibility of a changed life.
