FAR AWAY
Libera/Michael Horncastle/Fiona Pears/John Anderson/Steven Geraghty/Chris Dodd/Robert Prizeman/Ian T Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Wherever I go
Far away and anywhere
Time after time you always shine
Through dark of night calling after me

And wherever I climb
Far away and anywhere
You raise me high beyond the sky
Through stormy night lifting me above

Venite Spiritu et emitte caelitus
Venite Spiritu et emitte caelitus
Venite Spiritu Venite Spiritus
Far away beyond the sky

Whenever I cry
Far away and anywhere
You hear me call when shadows fall
Your light of hope showing me the way

Venite Spiritu et emitte caelitus
Venite Spiritu et emitte caelitus




Venite Spiritu Venite Spiritus
Far away beyond the sky

Overall Meaning

The song "Far Away" by Libera/Michael Horncastle/Fiona Pears/John Anderson/Steven Geraghty/Chris Dodd/Robert Prizeman/Ian T is a tribute to the power of love and hope that always shine through even in the darkest moments. The lyrics talk about the idea that wherever one goes, the light of love and hope follows them. The first verse talks about how this light always calls out to the individual even in the dark of night. The second verse speaks about how the light raises the individual high beyond the sky, through stormy nights and lifts them above. The chorus, which is written in Latin, means "Come, Spirit of Heaven and send forth, come Spirit, far away beyond the sky."


The second part of the song talks about how, whenever the individual cries or is in need, the light of hope and love always hears them call, showing them the way forward, even in the shadows of despair. The Latin chorus is repeated, again emphasizing the idea that the Spirit is always there, far away beyond the sky, providing a sense of comfort and guidance to those who need it.


The song is a beautiful expression of faith and hope in a higher power that guides and protects us even in the most challenging times. The use of Latin in the chorus adds to the transcendent feel of the song, making it a powerful and moving piece of music.
