Behind the Song “One Step Away” with Mark Hall

Mark Hall from Casting Crowns reminds us we’re only one step away from the presence of Jesus. Jesus says, “Just turn around and follow me from here.” We always think we’re farther away from God than we really are.

 

Watch the video below to get the full impact of this Casting Crowns song. We also wrote out the lyrics so you can read through them and be encouraged!

 

One Step Away Casting Crowns Lyrics

 

What if you could go back and relive one day of your life all over again, and unmake the mistake that left you a million miles away – from the you, you once knew. Now yesterday’s shame keeps saying that you’ll never get back on track, but what if I told you…

 

You’re one step away from surrender, one step away from coming home, coming home. One step from arms wide open. His love has never let you go. You’re not alone. You’re one step away.

 

It doesn’t matter how far you’ve gone. Mercy says you don’t have to keep running down the road you’re on. Love’s never met a lost cause. Your shame, lay it down. Leave your ghosts in the past ’cause you know that you can’t go back. But you can turn around. You’ve never been more than…

 

One step away from surrender, one step away from coming home, coming home. One step from arms wide open. His love has never let you go. You’re not alone. You’re one step away. You’re one step away.

 

Lay down, lay down your old chains. Come now, and take up your new name. Your best life up ahead now. You’re one step away. So come on home, come on home – one step from arms wide open. His love has never let you go. You’re not alone. You’re one step away.
