“Never Gone” by Colton Dixon

Lights off, a shot in the dark
We get lost when we're playing a part
We lay blame like we know what's best
It's a shame

We break when we fall too hard
Lose faith when we're torn apart
Don't say you're too far gone
It's a shame
It's a shame

I'm still standing here
No I didn't disappear
Now the lights are on
See I was never gone

I let go of your hand
To help you understand
With you all along
Oh, I was never gone

There's space between our lives
Hard to face, but I know we try
To revive, bring it back to life
Don't walk away
Don't walk away

I'm still standing here
No I didn't disappear
Now the lights are on
See I was never gone

I let go of your hand
To help you understand
With you all along
Oh, I was never gone

I never ever left you
Never ever left you, no
I said I never ever left you
Never ever left you, no
And Jesus never ever left you
Never ever left you, no
Could seize the evil and the darkness
Now you know you're not alone

I'm still standing here
No I didn't disappear
Now the lights are on
See I was never gone

I let go of your hand
To help you understand
With you all along
Oh, I was never gone

I'm still standing here
No I didn't disappear
Now the lights are on
See I was never gone

I let go of your hand
To help you understand
With you all along
Oh, I was never gone

Imagine the one singing this to you is, GOD. You'll really feel that He's right there beside you.

Honestly, I heard this song multiple times but I don't really get it. I mean! I'm just listening to the tone and I need the lyrics and after I got the lyrics, that time I listened to it, my heart felt so heavy. I can't remember what's with me that time but as I began to understand it's lyrics, I really felt His presence.

I'm crying over and over again. I even repeated the song again and again. It's funny but I guess, I'm crazy lol.

But the song! It made me feel so.. it feels so safe.

The best part of the song that really hit me so hard is this one:

I let go of your hand
To help you understand
With you all along
Oh, I was never gone

The words used amazed me.

Sometimes when we are at the edge of questioning God why He isn't there, He's really there.

He just have to let go of our hand because He wants us to understand what it looks like and what should be like when we're away from Him.

That's HAVING FAITH IN HIM!

And not walking away.

He wants us to realize that when worries come our way, the only solution is to be closed to Him. To have a deep trust in Him. Because the truth is, He's just there.

Beside me.

Beside you.

Finally, He wants us to realize that when we're away from Him, that's where He's so close to us.

Deuteronomy 31:6 NCV

“Be strong and brave. Don’t be afraid of them and don’t be frightened, because the Lord your God will go with you. He will not leave you or forget you.”

And always remember,

He's NEVER GONE. ❤️
