Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My search for you has come to an end. My hopes and dreams were not what they seemed. Christ is the truth and the way. I found out for myself. He lifteth me up and carries me away.
Seeking for the truth. And you will find. Find out for myself no more lies. Lies were told to me but the truth has set me free, freed my mind. I have found the, know the only way, seek out Christ.
I try to help you cause you are my friend. Your hopes and dreams are not what they seem. Christ is the truth and the way. You'll find out for yourself. He'll lift you up and carry you away.
Seeking for the truth. And you will find. Find out for myself no more lies. Lies were told to me but the truth has set me free, freed my mind. I have found the, know the only way, seek out Christ.
