Where’s the answer?

Where’s the answer? There must be more for me.

Is this all to life—an empty vanity?

Day by day and year by year go by.

Am I just a man

a man just born to die?

Where’s the answer? Oh I’m so empty

And plagued by this vanity.

Deep inside me

My conscience tells me:

I need another destiny.

I convinced my friends that everything’s alright

That my life and future and everything’s so bright.

But a sense inside me

my friends

I can’t deny

Warning deep inside me that I was living a lie.

Where’s the answer? Oh I’m so empty

And plagued by this vanity.

Deep inside me

My conscience tells me:

I need another destiny.

The world and its glitter left me anxious

dark

and bitter

Always yearning

my friends

is there something better?

And religion

my friends

is just a Sunday game—

Dead teachings and doctrines will leave you just the same.

Where’s the answer? Oh I’m so empty

And plagued by this vanity.

Deep inside me

My conscience tells me:

I need another destiny.

Oh God

where are You? I need You desperately!

Oh God

who are You? Why don’t You answer me?

The heavens declare You and the earth shows Your beauty.

But I’m a man. Oh God

I’m so empty!

Lord

have mercy! I’m crying for You!

Please hear! Are you really true?

I’m dark and lonely. You’re far

far from me.

Oh Lord

I need You desperately!

One day a friend told me that Jesus is the Lord.

To my great surprise

it’s written in the Word.

They asked me to believe You. Your name I once blasphemed.

Dear Lord

You saved me just by calling on Your name.

Oh

Lord Jesus

dear Son

so glorious

I’m cleansed and You entered into me.

Oh

Lord Jesus

Your name most precious!

Your Person

dear Lord

I now possess.
