On Higher Grounds

I’ve searched for love in funny places
I’ve searched for love in funny ways
I’ve searched for love both high and low
I’ve searched for it in all my days

Yet often did I wonder
And often did I cry
Not knowing where the roads may lead to
Not knowing what I’ll ever find

‘Til I sat in silence along the way
‘Til I listened to my heart and prayed
That I realized love was always there
And that love shall always stay

I grasped it and I let it go
I breathed it in and I breathed it out
I tasted it and cherrished it
I held it with my trembling palm

For love has been there all along
And love will guide me ‘til I’m home
What I have sought I know I’ve found
And my heart shall rest on higher grounds
