This one's straight out of Matthew 9:20-22 and then again in Luke 8:43-48. I like how it starts off with the Bible story and then migrates to you and I. What I also love about this song is the fact that John sings it:
"I'm out of touch; I'm out of reach
I've got the faith to believe,
Am I out of touch, or out of reach?
what would it take to walk towards me"
as if the person doesn't have the faith or will, while in pain, to get up and go to Jesus, they beg for Jesus to come to them.
Then in the next stanza:
"I'm out of touch; I'm out of reach
but I'm running toward you and it's all I believe"
The character realizes they can be healed completely, summoning all their strength, and runs to Jesus for healing!
