Song Description

When you look for the answers to life in this world...you will come up "empty handed" The answer is not in this world, but is in the One who is not of this world.

Lyrics

Empty Handed
By: Lori Stockwell Smith

There is a void deep in your soul
You keep trying to fill the hole
With people and things
But your still left with nothing

You wear a smile to hide the pain
The same routine over and over again
Chasing the dream that lives in your mind
Desperate with so little time

You?ll look here and you?ll search there
But I know, that you?ll come up empty handed
It?s clear that wherever you go
You?re gonna come up empty handed
When you think that the answers to life
Are here in this world

I stand in the shadows and pray
That you will stop this dance someday
And you will finally be ready to hear
The words that will make it all clear

You?ll wear a smile without the pain
You?ll know real joy over and over again
You?ll live the dream instead of the lie
Until then you will find
(chorus)

I truly care about you
And I know the One
Who can take your empty hands
And fill them with love

Don?t look here and don?t search there
Cause I know that you?ll come up empty handed
It?s clear that wherever you go
You?re gonna come up empty handed
Cause the real answer to life
Is not of this world

He?s not of this world
God?s not of this world
