The Search

The secret of majesty

Is its power held

In mystery

Elusive separation

Fills us with a

Want

That we seek

To complete

And so we search

Like beggars

For a hint of

The king's treasury

And throughout

The week

We hunt and see

And collect pennies

Along our travels

And with that sum

We can finally come

And reside in the palace

Of the king

And every need

He will fully heed

And fill us with his love

Because we searched

And worked hard to find

And lit a candle in the night

To guide us to

The king's eternal light.

The gifts of the king

He longs to share

And tells us with

A smile and a tear

"For you, my dear one,

I will always care"

And these few words

We hold so close

For when it comes time

For the king to send us

Away from here

To restart our search

And fill our lack

Until the next week

When the king

With joy and song

Will happily

Welcome us back.
