Monica - Searchin' Lyrics

When I hear the children of today
They're questioning me the way
The way that they should live
I often wonder, wonder what to do
To help them make it through
In a world that's gone astray

Open my heart to see that it's up to me
Searchin' for the answers to these problems
I'm always facing things that are tryin' me
Testing all the things that I believe

Sometimes I feel so down and no one here's around
But you, you never left me lonely
And now I see, what a true friend means
And I trust that you would always be here for me
Lord, I give you all

Open my heart to see that this lies with me
Searchin' for the answers to these problems
I'm always facing things that are tryin' me
(I'm standing right here)

Testing all the things that I believe
Now I'm here before you
So tell me what to do
(Guess I will open my heart)

My heart to you, here I am
Searching for all the answers to my problems
Lord I'm facing things, can you help me?
You're trying all that I need the things I believe
Lord, no no no no

Here I am, here I am
I'm searching for, searching for it
Lord, I need, need, need, that's tryin' me
Testing all the things that I believe

No, no, here I am
Lacking all the understand the things I can't see
I am your child, ooh, oh, oh
That're tryin' me

Can you help me, I'm lacking understanding
I'm your child no matter what they say
I'm yours every day
Protect me every day, protect me, oh, oh
