Universe Next Door Songtext
von Wes King

There is a universe next door to me
Living, breathing, feeling, and orbiting
And not even my telescope can make it to his galaxy
I can barely keep my own world a reality

There is a universe next door to me
But there isn′t a miracle or a mystery
Not even my warmest smile can break through his reality
I can barely love the ones who are in front of me

Break my heart open up eyes
Fill me with compassion
Show me how to be
Jesus to the universe
Jesus to the universe next door to me


I must escape my silent planet
For far too long I've taken this Good News for granted
How can I say loving my neighbor is my creed my claim
When I don′t even know his
Well when I don't even know his name

Break my heart open up eyes
Fill me with compassion
Show me how to be
Break my heart open up eyes
Fill me with compassion
Show me how to be
Jesus to the universe
Jesus to the universe next door
Jesus to the universe next door to me

There is a universe next door to me
There is a line between our property

But I never venture over, it's just too far to see
