I have been deceived I have been misled Out in stormy seas I have found no rest I have told some lies To protect myself I've been such a fool I've learned my lesson well And in my search for freedom I have found someone to lean on This is not someone who's here and gone This is everlasting love I have been rescued My life has just begun For one who is so weak With you I feel so strong I can't believe my eyes The sun has set me free At last I understand This peace inside of me And in my search for purity I have found someone who has met my needs This is not a short term remedy This is everlasting love And in my search for honesty I have found a love so true to me I believe in one can not see With an everlasting love
