Lyrics
Chorus
You are the real thing
You're the only one
This is the real dream
Knowing I am loved
You are the real thing
And I'll never give You up
Never let You go
Oh no oh no
You are the real thing
That's just who You are
And You have changed me
'Cause You live inside my heart
I know the real thing
And I'll never give You up
Never let You go
Oh no oh no Jesus
Verse 1
I was looking for a very best friend
Someone to stick with me
Until the very end
I was searching for a place to fit in
With someone I could trust
Someone to understand
I was reaching for a hand to hold
Somewhere I could go
So I didn't feel alone
That's when You opened up my eyes
Right there I was changed then I realized
Verse 2
I can't rely on everything I hear
Everything I see
As truth I can believe
So many people got their own kinda spin
They just flip the words
To make it make sense
I want something something in my life
Something genuine
That only You can give
Like love like peace and joy and hope
The more I seek the more I know
Bridge
So unshakeable
Solid as a rock
So reliable
Everything this world is not
You are the real thing
So unshakeable
Solid as a rock
Everything I really want
Ending
You are the real thing
Never give You up
Never let You go
That's when You opened up my eyes
Right there I was changed
Then I realized
You are the real thing
