When I Found

Written by: Todd Trebony

I put on my dusty shoes,
grabbed my coat
went walking down the square towards the place
i knew you wanted me to be,
those church bells,
people everywhere.
i'm almost there, almost there.

Chorus:
when i found, no looking back,
no turning back,
i'm where i'm supposed to be, yeah.
when i found, no runnin round,
no underground,
no watered down shaky News. when i found, "love"...

Well, i went home with the news, tellin my wife,
just layin it all on the line
that i have a new-found friend.
His name is Jesus.
Now, i'm goin out
tellin people everywhere,
that i am His, and He is mine...

Chorus.....(ending with) "joy"...

then...break/interlude...with--
"when i found, when i found"
"i need Your Peace"
"when i found, when i found"
"i need Your love"
"when i found, when i found"
"everlasting Joy" Oh....

repeat chorus x2

end with....."when i found...Jesus."
