One Step Away Lyrics

I was told when I was young that one day soon I'm going to see You.
We'll take a train far from this place where all our pain will be over.

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e65834-jason_upton~one_step_away_lyrics.html ]
My God how I long to see You now.
And something in my heart tells me somehow You're one step away.

A distant sound is hard to hear even a sound as loud as thunder.
A distant heart is full of fear a distant soul has lost its' wonder.

Sometimes it's hard to hear Your voice, my God.
Is the reason that You're whispering because
You're one step away?
