Compositor: Bill / Gloria Gaither
Long, long time ago my heart was burdened with sin,
My head bowed in sorrow, the devil had me troubled with-in;
I started seeking salvation, I had a hard time resisting temptation,
so I kept on searchin till I found the King of Kings.
Chorus:
Well, I kept on searchin, searchin,
I kept on searchin till I found Him,
Kept on searchin, searchin,
I kept on searchin till I found Him.
He changed my heart - so I could live right,
Changed my mind - so I could think right,
Changed my mouth - so I could talk right,
Changed my feet - so I could walk right,
Well I kept on searchin till I found the King of Kings.
Looking high and low along that wandering way
my soul was full of longing, until one glorious day
It was when my anticipation gave a way to sweet consolidation
That I kept on on searchin till I found the King of Kings.
