"Searching"

 

I came into this world as a child,

little, soft, tender, and mild.

As I grew older and into my teens,

I searched the world over for what love means.

I thought it was my friends, my girl friend, parties and dreams.

I thought I found love in all these things.

But as I grew older and into adulthood,

I realized I wasn't living like I should.

Then one night as I lay quiet and still,

my heart with his love he began to fill.

I thought I was without love, lonely, cold, and forgotten.

Then I remembered...

God gave his only begotten.

He died on the cross at Calvary,

Now I know love cause he died for me!
