Do you know him?
Ten years ago I first met you
You touched my heart with a song
And yet when it all first began
I never knew it'd last for so long
Cos' there were so many times it seems
When I called and you weren't there
So many nights I lay wondering
Lord, why didn't you answer my prayer ?
Now looking back it seems so clear
Though then I had no way of knowing
That all those times I had asked without waiting
That all I did was pray without hoping
But it wasn't till two years ago
That i realized where lay the crisis
It wasn't till a question ago...
When I was asked, "Do you know Jesus?"
With shock and sadness I began to see
That I'd only known you by name
Somehow I'd been deceived into believing
Acquaintance and personal knowledge the same
So this now my testimony, Lord
Which I can say without shame
That I'm beginning to know and love
The person behind the Name.
