Lonely Place

i do not think i’ve found
    this place that you have gone
i’ve climbed up to the mountains
    i’ve searched over the dawn
i’ve traced my steps to hell
    i’ve wandered o’er seas
yet, o jesus, where you wander
    still seems dark to me.

i’ve clamored over bookend
    i’ve scaled education
i’ve lost a lot of friends
i’ve met with every nation
and still i’m looking for
    this place of quiet rest
jesus, come to me and show me
        where it is...
