Searching through the scriptures,
Reading every word
I sometimes must admit
The meaning seems absurd
To be born again
Because He gave His Son
How can He undo
All the things that were done
To wipe away the tears
When heaven streets we see
To have no more pain
Tell me how can this be
I try so hard each day
The verses do I read
I try to find the meanings
My spirit do I feed
I want so much to learn
To be a lamp for God
To know where I came from
Those words just seem so odd
The desire that I have
Burns down deep inside
I seek to find the answers
No longer do I hide
I share the wealth I find
From what I learn each day
I always start with reading
And then I stop to pray
