I looked for love in the red rose so small
I looked for love in the green tree so tall
But the red rose had its thorns
And the green tree was a cross
And my searching for love was a total loss
I looked for love in a friendly face so true
I looked for love in the creed I once knew
Well my friend just called me friend
And he said I'm searching too
And the creed only told me what I couldn't do.
Then one day I heard a story of love
Like I've never known
how God gave His son to save me
and wanted me for His own
His own, His very own.
And now I know what it means to belong
Not lost in the crowd swept along by the throng
But to Him Who gave His life
Every longing to fulfill and I know
That He loves me and He always will.
