I thought I could find all that I needed in this life in the halls, know, and diplomas.
Learning and thinking my way through this life,

So, I…

I placed all my faith in you.
I placed all my hope in you.
I placed all my dreams in you.
I found all of me,
in you.

I thought I could find all that I needed in this life in the chapels, psalms, and stained glass.
Praying and praising my way through this life,

So, I…

I placed all my faith in you.
I placed all my hope in you.
I placed all my dreams in you.
I found all of me,
in you.

I thought I could find all that I needed in this life in the promises, kisses, and dreams of the future.
Seeking forever and loving my way through this life,

So, I…

I placed all my faith in you.
I placed all my hope in you.
I placed all my dreams in you.
I found all of me,
in you.

I thought I could find all that I needed in this life in accolades, promotions, and gilded treasures for sale.
Climbing onto the next plateau, leveling-up my way through this life,

So, I…

I placed all my faith in you.
I placed all my hope in you.
I placed all my dreams in you.
I found all of me,
in you.

All the learning cannot replace,
All the faith I found.
All the praying cannot replace,
All the hope I found.
All the earning cannot replace,
All the dreams I found.
All the loving cannot replace,
All the strength I found.

Reflecting back at me,
in the man I saw in the mirror.
