One Day I Was Wondering



One day I was wondering, what's it all about,

Life is full of heartbreak, restlessness and doubt.

Then a gentle stranger whispered words of love,

Pointed me to heaven, wrote my name above.


I know where I'm go - ing and who I'm going to see.

I have a friend named Je - sus waiting there for me.

He has given something that only He can give.

He gave His life in payment so that I could live.



There are many mansions He's preparing there,

That could not be purchased by a millionaire.

Streets of gold that glitter, gates of pearly white,

In a day eternal where there is no night.



Friend if you are searching for a better way,

I'm recommending Jesus, trust in Him today.

He will give life meaning like no other can.

Come and travel with me, to the promised land.
