I searched for Him but did not know

there was nowhere I had to go.

I looked, and looked … and could not see

His love was there, surrounding me.

I reached for Him and tried to touch

those loving hands that did so much…

…those hands that never count the cost

when reaching out to save the lost.

How can I earn this love today?

This love, my Friend, He gives away!

This is a love no price can buy,

but for this love, He had to die.

His love for me is always here;

brings me comfort, and takes my fear.

It's far beyond what I have known,

the purest love ever shown.

I looked for Him, but could not see,

He is the one who's finding me.

In love, He took me as His own.

No greater love was ever shown.

When I reached out, in faith, for love

He showered blessings from above.

He saved me from an awful end.

Now He's my Father, God, and Friend!

Now I don't need a thing,

for I am a child of the King.

He took from me my pain and strife

And gave instead, eternal life.

He died for us, that we may live.

This is the love He wants to give.

There is no way to earn this love.

It's freely given from above.
