Millions of questions waded in my mind's jacuzzi

Yearning for the truth I had not yet known...'

Catacomb echos bounce off walls, my brain's rev

Heartbroken after every seeming jubilee.

All the work just faded, striking me dumb;

I longed for tranquility, the true kind of peace...

Nothing satisfied me, I found no prize.

Salvation came down, an ordinary man

And I said goodbye to my prison chains.

Real joy filled me, and my face glowed with glee.

Eternal peace sent down from the Eternal Light

Gifting it to all, being a better gift than any stuff.

Oh, to tell the story of this heavenly favour!

Now nothing I lack, oh Lord, in thee.

Eternally my chains are gone, and I've been set free.
