I searched and searched the world around In hope of faith and meaning; Beyond closed doors and busy streets Along smoky alleys I sat weeping.
Paths mercilessly entwined Mere shadows in the wilderness; And upped he came, eyes of a hawk Enticing smiles and covertness.
Words of promise, all disowned A liar and a thief, his prey he purposed me to be; Beauty, charm and poise, too many to recall Falling stars amidst the abyss of eternity.
O Hear my cry, My Lord Hide not Thy face from me this day; For I am weak and shattered No map, no compass, I’ve gone astray.
And life took on a new beginning The shining light of Grace; And to my dreams He brought true meaning Peacefully in my heart it took its place.
He showered me with His Holy Spirit To overcome my enemies, strong; And in good faith to endure all things Knowing to Whom I will always belong.
