I search for answers with a troubled mind,

the truth about God, I need to find.

I need a light to guide me through the dark,

on a journey of certainty, I embark.

Truths are twisted, creating conflicting emotions.

I seek freedom from a life going through the motions.

I am lost in a maze of what to believe is true.

God, my heart seeks refuge in you.

Echoes of opinions is all I hear,

to whom you really are, I need to be clear.

I can’t help but question everything.

I need to start from the very beginning.

When all I knew was your love,

and let that be enough.

Before doctrine was implanted in my mind,

I need to leave all that behind.

Take me back to the simplicity of you,

relieving the turmoil, I am going through.

I need peace within my heart.

Freedom from the messages that tear me apart.

Messages that tell me I am a sinner,

my faith is beginning to get thinner.

I don’t want it to become nonexistent.

I just need a truth that is consistent.
