The stars are out tonight
They are shining, oh
so bright
As I look, I see a
distant star
Dear Lord, it seems so
very far.
I wish I could pray to
have wings of my own
I want to hide, to be
alone
If I went to that distant
star to understand
Will I find myself, see
where I am.
I want my tears to blow
away in the breeze
Jesus will You catch them
please,
Yet, if I went to Heaven
today
Maybe that distant star
will go away
Will anyone miss me or
remember me at all
Will I tug at their
heartstring, if they softly call.
Shall I be forgotten
without my name upon a stone
Will I always be left
here all alone.
But if I go to
that distant star,
Then Heaven is my home
With the Lord Jesus, I
will never roam.
I will no longer hide
from my mistakes
I ask forgiveness for the
cost I take,
I am blessed with a God
who forgives my heart
He who is on a distant
star.
