Once I walked alone in desperation
Knowing not my way back home
And my heart could find no consolation
In the troubled path I roamed
Then I found myself an old time altar
Where I knelt to pray one night
When I felt the tears roll down my face
That's when I felt the Lord inside
With the Spirit of the Lord inside
There's a greater love in me
When I asked Him to come in my life
What a difference I could see
And I know that it's a real salvation
For no other it could be
With the Spirit of the Lord inside
There's a greater love in me
Since that day my life has changed completely
There's a gladness in my heart
I'm a member of God's loving family
With a message to impart
If you're searching for your soul's contentment
There's one thing that you can do
You'll find true joy and happiness
With the Spirit of the Lord in you
