Who told you love had to be earned?
Who taught you God’s mysteries
Could be grasped and learned by the mind?
Who told you you were falling behind—
That the kingdom is something
You have to die to find?
Can you feel it when you stop striving,
That ancient fire arriving,
To burn away everything false—
So you can feel the truth:
The kingdom is alive in you
Don’t you feel it like a current
Moving through your bones?
Like a voice beneath the silence
Calling you back home?
⸻
[Chorus]
Not shame or fear
Can keep God away
The love that stays
You can feel when you pray
No distance between
No ladder to climb
Love is ready to meet you
When your heart is aligned
⸻
[Verse 2]
They said heaven was a distance
Somewhere past the sky
So you kept your eyes on leaving
While it lived inside
Does it turn into a hunger—
Always one more step to go?
Chasing something just beyond you
That has never let you go?
⸻
[Bridge]
When you learn to let go,
That’s when you know
You were never alone
You are never alone
There’s a Voice in the quiet
That can fade if you chase it
Kingdoms and empires tried—
But could not erase it
⸻
[Final Chorus]
Not shame or fear
Can keep God away
The love that stays
You can feel when you pray
No distance between
No ladder to climb
Love is ready to meet you
When your heart is aligned
No fear, no shame
No earning required
You’re not reaching for the flame—
You carry fire
