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 was so weak With you I feel so strong I can't believe my eyes The Son has set me free At last I understand This peace inside of me In my search for purity I have found someone who has met my need This is not a short-term remedy This is everlasting love In my search for honesty I have found a love so true to me I believe in one I cannot see With an everlasting love With an everlasting love With an everlasting love This is everlasting love
