Note from Joe: Many people believe in God in their youth, then substitute "Reason" for faith in midlife, then discover later in life that God was there all along, patiently and lovingly waiting for their return.
So many years ago, I can't remember now,
Someone was waiting for me.
I had the answers to all of my questions.
Love was so easy to see, I didn't know.
When I was younger, I should have known better.
I thought that nothing was new.
Through all the spaces, and all of the changes,
What I lost sight of was You.
I didn't know, I didn't know
I could see You in singing skies and dancing waters,
Laughing children, growing old,
And in the heart and in the spirit
And in the truth when it is told.
My life became shady, and I grew afraid
And I needed to find my way home.
I just couldn't see You. I thought that I'd lost You.
I'd never felt so much alone. Are You still with me?
Somehow in reason, I lost sight of seasons,
Tides rollin' out, rollin' in.
Sometimes in evenings, when daylight was leavin',
I thought I'd never see You again.
Are you still with me?
Are you still with me?
If my faith should falter
And I should forsake You, and find myself turning away
Will You still be there?
Will You still be there?
