The Greatest Search

 

Was never fully sure why

Never really knew what was missing

A void filled my heart

My soul sent silent cries ringing through the darkness

I grasped at earthly pleasures

Hoping something would fill the hollowness

 

Thought I could make it on my own

Still wanted to make you happy

But didn’t know how or what

Didn’t understand that alone I would always fail

Would not ask for Your help, would not admit I am weak

Bound to always fall short of your plan

 

I stumbled through life thinking I was alone

Never quite knowing which way to go

Your grace finally brought me to where I needed to be

What I was missing finally was clear

Your light shined deep into my darkness

And then I knew why I needed Your love
