The Book
lyric by Bob Miller
When you're searchin for the truth, You gotta look in the book
Never any fine print, Always clear as a brook
Say those words out loud, All the dark will turn to light
All the answers that God wrote are right
If you ask the average person what we're all doing here
They got no answer (got no answer)
When you ask them what comes next and if death's something to fear
They got no answer (got no answer)
When you ask them why it is that often loved ones must die
How we're supposed to go on living when we just wanna cry
And what's the point in going on when there's no reason to try
They got no answers (got no answers)
When you're searchin for the truth, You gotta look in the book
Never any fine print, Always clear as a brook
Say those words out loud, All the dark will turn to light
All the answers that God wrote are right
When your heart is broke in half and all your strength has run out
And your friends say "lack of faith" is in your way
Nothin else seems worth the effort and you've lost all your hope
And you've nothing left to try except to pray
But then you ask the learned student how we're going to cope
They got an answer (got an answer)
Cause you're full of hopelessness and at the end of your rope
They got an answer (got an answer)
So you study their solutions and commit them to the heart
But soon your plans have turned up empty and you're falling apart
You ask them once again for help and for a place to restart
They got no answer (they got no answer)
When you're searchin for the truth, You gotta look in the book
Never any fine print, Always clear as a brook
Say those words out loud, All the dark will turn to light
All the answers that God wrote are right
Thou your friends may seem well meaning they can hardly relate
They're not living in the depths of deep despair
Jesus really cares about you cause He's been there himself
He put the answer in this message in this message to share
So when you're searchin for the truth, You gotta look in the book
Never any fine print, Always clear as a brook
Say those words out loud, All the dark will turn to light
All the answers that God wrote are right
