I tried to find wisdom
In things of this world
But soon i realized
That none was quite real

I tried to find peace
Instead chaos reigned
I tried to find joy
But sorrow prevailed

I tried to gain riches
But still I felt poor
No matter how much
I still wanted more

I tried to find hope
But doom filled my life
I tried to find love
Bit it always slipped by

Then I met Jesus
I learned that He died
He paid for my sins
He gave me new life
Now there is only
One thing that I try
That’s to follow my Savior
Until I should die

I know He will give me
All of these things
If I will remain
Everyday close to Him
