My wandering days grew increasingly empty

My wandering days grew increasingly empty As I searched for the way, Just to fill this gap inside me— Found my seeking vain. Though all this dark earth would convince me life’s worthwhile, Inside all my mirth Was a cry for something real. Don’t you lie to me, world! |
For my heart tells me different When I hear of contentment Deep within a lack knew better Why not be honest, world. |

A flood of strong doubt as I heard the old story Of a man they called Lord; Yet my heart ne’er ceased to wonder, Is He really Lord? A search in His Word found my hardened heart softened, And earth’s vanities faded. In the brightness of His presence Jesus came into me. |
Now we’re always together Growing into God’s fullness. O Lord Jesus, how I love You! You brought life into me. |

Oh Lord Jesus!
This song really moves me every time I read the lyrics. As much as I hate to say it, I am brought to almost joyful tears as I realize what the Lord has done for me.

Oh! My life WAS as the first stanza: wandering days, increasingly empty, gap, vain seek, dark. My mirth was a cry because the world is a liar. BUT Jesus came into me! Now we’re always together growing into God’s fullness! He brought life into me! Hallelujah!
