When You Search for Me

I wouldn't necessarily call myself a religious person as much as a spiritual person. There's a lot more to this, which I will one day explain, but wrote this thinking that whoever is out there, whatever you believe, this would be the message to you. It's actually a song I wrote, but since I can't hum it to you (or because doing so on youtube would be embarrassing) you'll have to just read it out and see what you make of the rhythm.


When You Search For Me (written to a tune)

I love the way you smile even when you’re scared
I love your heartaches because you care
I hate the moments your crumble and break
But your love and compassion can’t be taken away

I made you perfect all the way through
I made you special, there’s no one like you
I gave you life and I gave you choice
And sometimes disaster helps you find your voice

When you search for me
When you look to me
Some answers you seek
Aren’t the answers you need
Your strength is determined
You’ll find your way through
When you search for me
I will find you

I love the way you think life is too hard
And I love the way you need to take charge
I love your passion, your desire and drive
Because you know the value of love in this life

When you search for me
When you search for me
Close your eyes
I am here, I am what you need
When you search for me
When you look to me
Those are the moments
I know you believe

I love the way you never give up
When push comes to shove you give all that you’ve got
I love your secrets, your wishes and dreams
And the way that you search for the meaning of things

When you’re feeling weak
When you search for me
When your questions need answers
That won’t let you sleep
When there’s more to the task
Than what’s given at hand
You believe in me
And I’ll show you the plan

When you search for me
When you search for me
In your moments of frailty
You believe

When you search for me
When you look to me
Close your eyes, I am here
I am what you need

I am here by your side
And you'll find your way through
When you search for me
I will find you
