Lyrics
LONELY BOY David H. McIntosh 2005
V1
A lonely boy wanders in the night,
His heart is longing, his life is a fight
Something?s missing, don?t know what it is
Searching for the happy life he?d live
Day by day doing what he must
A stranger to everyone, who can he trust?
Slowly starving for the love he needs
But never finds the purpose that he seeks.
CHO 1.
It?s a fearful sight when you look inside
There?s (it?s) a void that shows, if you care to know
You?re designed to be in His family
There is just one door, that is sure, go through Christ the Lord
V2
They tell him Jesus is the Way, the Life
He glimpses a light at the edge of his sight
Bound by fear, and desire to control
In darkness, the only home he knows
Know the Truth, Truth will set you free
That is what I need, he thinks, sure sounds good to me
Deep inside he knows the Lord is calling to him
What will I be, if I let Him in?
V3
Decision?s made, and the time?s at hand
He stops running, turns around and faces Jesus man to man
Finding his forgiveness he leaves the past behind,
And pledges to this new life that he finds
Suddenly there is joy and peace
Something really happened, he has found what he needs
Loneliness is in the past, true friends come his way
And the Bible never ceases to amaze
CHO 2
Do not fear His light, there?s no need to hide
Just say ?Yes? to Him, your new life begins
Yes, He knows and sees, He has (is) what you need
Meet your Maker, son, the Only One, and your search is done
Another boy wanders in the night..
