I had read it all before How he knelt, he prayed His answer came As light filled that sacred grove But the day I read for real I turned the page to hear him say The words that changed my little faith In a whole new way I heard him say He knows that I know I cannot live my life by it He knows that I know Though the world may hate me The gift of His truth sets me free So here I am today My face turned towards A street of those honest hearts Though I know a soul I bear the Name that conquers fear With hope of finding open ears Who will make the choice To hear my voice say Then an open door appears And the truth wipes away all tears And another voice says loud and clear He knows that I know I cannot deny it I will live my life by it He knows that I know This gift that you bring me I will give to all freely So others can know like me
