Analysis of To Seek and to Find
Steve Cochrane 1955 (Cape)
Beyond the things we need to live,
Religious needs are so
Important that we all must give
Our soul the things to "grow".
Our souls are longing for the day
When they will be with God,
As well as Jesus and His love
For which it will applaud.
If we will truly seek to find
Our God it won't take long
Before we feel the special kind
Of love that can't go wrong!
He promises to be with us
And love forever more.
It never is superfluous;
A peace unlike before!
