When I Found You

When I Found You

1. I was searching for a glimmer of light.

I’ve been running ’round the desert in the dead of the night,

Still hoping for a star in the sky

To show me to my home.

’Cause I’ve tried too many times,

Trying to do it on my own, but I’ve been hurting inside.

But I know you started the fire,

Gave me your hand to hold.

[Chorus]

Yeah, You.

Looking back on my life,

at the darkest of times

There was You.

You took my broken soul,

held me like I was gold.

It was you.

I was stranded

When you gave me shelter.

Calm the waves when they’re pulling me under.

When I found You, I found myself.

Found You, I found myself. 

Found You, I found myself.

2. From the ashes I’m refined by the fire.

Yeah, I found a new perspective when you opened my eyes.

From my low lows to my highest of highs,

I never walk alone.

When I’m tossed and turned by the ocean,

Your love pulls me to the surface.

Now I have you as my compass.

Show me where to go.

[Chorus]

Yeah, You.

Looking back on my life,

at the darkest of times

There was You.

You took my broken soul,

held me like I was gold.

It was you.

I was stranded

When you gave me shelter.

Calm the waves when they’re pulling me under.

When I found You, I found myself.

Found You, I found myself.

Found You, I found myself.

[Chorus]

Looking back on my life,

at the darkest of times

You took my broken soul,

held me like I was gold.

I was stranded

When you gave me shelter.

Calm the waves when they’re pulling me under.

When I found You, I found myself.
